    Post Hard Drive Icons

    Does anyone know if it is possible to change the hard drive icons in "My Computer?" I know you can do it with shortcuts to it, but I have a client who demands I change it because he gets confused.

    Client: "But D drive and c drive look the same! How can I tell them appart?"

    add an autorun.inf to each drive like this:
    Code:
    [autorun]
icon=icon.ico ,0
    BTW good icon resorces:

    c:\windows\progman.exe
    c:\windows\moricons.dll
    c:\windows\system\pifmgr.dll
    c:\windows\system\shell32.dll
    any bmp, but it may not look right.
