System Tweak : Changing a drive/pendrive icon in Windows OS

There is a way to change the drive or pendrive icon such that it appears the same on every computer :

Here We Go :

1)Take any icon file (*.ico).
2)Suppose it has name f.ico
3)Copy the icon into the pendrive or hard disk partition.
4)Open Notepad and type as follows :
[autorun]
icon=f.ico,0
Note: In above replace f.ico with your icon files name.

5)Save the above file as "autorun.inf"(Note : File should have autorun as name and inf as extension).
6)Copy this file directly into ur Hard drive and pendrive.

7)Now you may hide the icon and autorun.inf file.
8)In case of pendrive eject and reinsert it & For Hard Drive Restart ur pc.
See the result :
