Cannot rename special folder

I used Drive Image to make a copy of my main data partition. One of the original folders was My Music, but in the copy partition it has been renamed "Terry Pinnell's Music". XP refuses to rename it back to My Music. How can I achieve that please?

Make a new folder called 'My Music', copy everything over, then delete the first folder?

delete the "desktop.ini" file inside the "Terry Pinnell's Music" folder should do the trick. The folder's name is already "My music" but xp personalizes it through desktop.ini.
