Something to try,

Type CMD on the run line,
Type CD\ to put you in the root directory,
Type LABEL and hit enter,
Type the label up to 11 characters and hit enter.

Good Luck,
Jerry

If that does not work and you have Norton AntiVirus or Norton SystemWorks,
then they may be preventing you from changing a drive label. Disable them
from booting with Windows or try renaming the drive in Safe mode.
