oh and if it's any help, i'm using windows XP.How to change the icon of my WD external HD?
Find an icon you like. You can find thousands of them by googling %26quot;western digital icon%26quot; or simply downloading an icon library. Or, you could just use .exe/program file that has a cool looking icon.



Now, open up notepad. Type



[Autorun]

Icon=iconname

Label=labelname





With %26quot;iconname%26quot; replaced by the name of your icon/exe file's name, and %26quot;labelname%26quot; replaced with whatever you want the drive to be named.



Now, save the notepad file as autorun.inf, and place it on your drive, along with the icon/exe file. viola!



Now, save
