Curious about how I might change one of my icons within My Computer. I know how to change the HD icons. I just place a new .ico in the root directory of the HD and make a text file called autorun.inf pointing to that new icon. But I have a Sony Laptop with a Memory Stick Reader/Writer built-in and I'd like to change its icon as well. Does anybody have any ideas?

Right click on a folder, select properties, select the Customize tab . You can change icon and folder pix.

This suspense is terrible. I hope it will last.
