Right try the following:

Install TweakUI from this stie:
http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/d...powertoys.mspx

Open the program and browse down to Repair, in the box it should have "Rebuild Icons" click on Repair now and see whether that helps.

Otherwise go to http://www.kellys-korner-xp.com/xp_tweaks.htm and browse down to number 119 - Change the hard drive icon.

Try that file and see whether it helps.

You can create your own icon if you want:

hmm, i tried TweakUI w/o results before, and tried that one from Kellys-Korner w/o success.? It asked from the path to the icon so i put in is that correct?

I think we are looking for the wrong solution here , it is not that just the icon has changed but you lost the icon and securety tab.

I don't know a solution yet but i thought i just mention it.

ya i was thinking that to. It seems as if my computer no longer recognizes it as a HDD cause when i do change hardrive icon, it never does anything...
