To change a drive icon displayed in Explorer, use Notepad to create a new text file with the following lines:
[Autorun]
ICON=Drive:\Path\Filename.Extension,Number
and save it as AUTORUN.INF into the root directory of the hard/removable drive you want to change the icon for.
Replace "Drive" above with a valid drive letter, and "Path" with your icon file's folder name.
"Filename" can be anything you want, but the "Extension" must be one of the following: .ICO, .ICL, .DLL or .EXE.
If you choose an icon library with the .DLL or .EXE extension (these usually contain more than one icon), you need to specify the position of the icon displayed by inserting a comma (,) followed by the icon's "Number". Example:
ICON=C:\Icons\Icons.dll,3
Press F5 to refresh your desktop when done.
Now start Windows Explorer and check out your new drive "look".
