icon on usb memeory stick

[Imda14u]

Hi all,

i have a usb hub with several memory sticks attached.
to identify each stick i would like to have an icon for each stick
so, when in explorer i can recognize the stick by the icon in stead of
its name.

anyone got any suggestions?

Put two files in the root directory of the thumb drive.

One called: autorun.inf
the 2nd called: icon.ico

The icon is the image. You may get some from google images, or
download icofx icon editor and make your own.

You can create autorun.inf with notepad and store the following 3 lines
in the file:
[autorun]
icon=icon.ico
label=Thumb Drive

Repeat the process with the other drives but change the icon.ico file.
Same name is fine, just change the image.
