Icon problem !?

hi there


i have just added a dvd rom to my p.c and its installed fine however its name has appeared as a "virtual cd/dvd drive"


this has happened after i tried a full version of "virtual cd" which lets you run your cd based programs and games without having to insert your program cd/dvd,s


is there a way to change(or rename) the icon in question,remembering its in "my computer" and you cannot simply rename or browse for a new icon


system restore is out the question as the virtual cd program was installed over 2 weeks ago,i dont want to restore that far back for obvious reasons


any more ideas ?


cheers guys !

Icon problem !?
Have you just tried to right click on the icon on the desktop and rename it.





Right click the program in my computer and create a shortcut on the desktop, then do the above and you should be in business.
Reply:drop me an email via my profile - will have a go with it when im at work and will post back with findings.





if you can also let me know or give me the link to the site where you downloaded the app just to make sure im using the same version and app as you are.
Reply:Try right clicking MY COMPUTER (or simply COMPUTER on Vista) then clicking MANAGE. There's a disk management there you can mess with.





Another option is to go to the Device Manager (Windows Key + R %26gt; "devmgmt.msc") then UNINSTALLING the drive itself. After you restart, Windows should detect the drive and reinstall.





Good luck and have fun!
Reply:Sorry brain this one is way beyond my computer I.Q. i,m sure there is someone out there that can help, good luck , mike b.
