Can't change drive icon

[jslegers]

Hi,

I'm trying to change the drive icon for my AR Ram Drive. I have used the registry method but it still shows a harddrive icon. I also have rebuild the icon cache but that also didn't work. What I'm I doing wrong ? I'm using it on a nLite created Windows XP installation with RyanVM update packs.

Kind regards,

John

what method are you using? registry entry or some program?

registry should work..so you sure you have done it right...here is what I have for my I Drive..which is a LiteOn DVD

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\DriveIcons\I]

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\DriveIcons\I\DefaultIcon]

@="C:\\WINDOWS\\Icons\\DVDRW_LITEON1.ico"

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\DriveIcons\I\DefaultLabel]

@="LiteOn DVDRW-1653S"

here is a snapshot:

This is what I use in my registry.

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\DriveIcons\R\DefaultIcon]

@="C:\\WINDOWS\\system32\\shell32.dll,12"

Could it be an AR Ram Drive issue ?

EDIT :

I have found the problem. AR Ram Drive doesn't make a volume of some kind. I think that's why it doesn't have an custom icon.

jroc,

I like your icons. Can you post your CDR(W) icons?

Thanks
