Is there a Proper way to setup Icons for my external?

I am having trouble with my external hard drive because every time I plug it in, it decides it wants to change its drive letter (first it will be External ( F: ) Then it will change to External ( G: ) after plugging it back in most likely after my computer reboots) . I have looked around a little to see if there is a way to have my external remember what drive letter to pick but even thinking of the logic behind the situation, I can't imagine there being a way.
But that is not necessarily my biggest issue, I want my external to have Folder Icons for each one of my TV show folders and etc. The reason I brought up the changing drive letter is because when I assign an icon to the folder I want it on, the file path includes the External( F: ) or External( G: ). so if the drive letter changes, it can't find the icons anymore. I'm just wondering if there is any way that I could keep the Icons on my external so they go to each computer, but have like a dynamic file path or some other deal that lets me access them regardless of the drive letter.
Anyone got any ideas?

Thanks! I will try this :) so this drive letter will stay true for whatever computer I plug it into?
Meaning, it will remember it even if its not on the same computer?

Try this mhelseth93

1. Download any icon file of your choice. It should be *.ico file.

2. Open up your notepad and type the following or just copy and paste the code

[autorun]
icon=icon name.ico

3. Change the icon name to the icon file name.

4. Now from your notepad go to file save as,change “Save As Type” to “All files” and “File Name” to "autorun.inf".

5. Save the autorun.inf without the quote and your .ico file to the external drive


Now... no matter if your external drive change letter or plug in to any computer the icon will appear.


Hope this help and works for you....:)
