| | Change Drive Icon sizes in Explorer Hi Guys I have 8 hard drives, plus DVD and USB and I run at 1600x1200 on a 21" monitor. In Explorer I want to be able to see and differentiate drives at a glance. I can assign new icons but frustratingly I cannot change the size. I would like to make the drive icons one size bigger - does anyone know if this can be done? Brian |

| | Hi Arc Sorry but no. That slider has no effect whatsoever on the hard drive icons which are in the left hand side pane Brian |

| | Easy, open up notepad put the following code in: Code: [autorun] icon = /icon.ico and make sure where it says 'save as file type' change it to * All Files. Put you icon on the same drive, and name it icon.ico Restart your PC, and it should have the icon you put on the drive. |

| | Hi Uber I already have that thanks to Microangelo. Problem is Explorer displays any drive icon as 16x16 whereas I want it to be 32x32 Brian |

| | I can remember when it was XP, once I enlarged them; not with any system tweak, but applying a program called FinderXer. Dont know if it warks with 7 or not |
