How to rename your Disk drives?

Fellows - This is pretty basic. But since my blog is going to be transparent from beginner to geek, I would like to cover pretty basic fundamentals as well. So Geeks, you can get a coffee meanwhile!!!

Now for the readers - Have you ever wondered, if you dont know, that you can exactly change the names of the Disk Drives like C,D etc., to your names? Its pretty simple as well. If you are not sure, then herez how to do it...

1. Double click on the My Computer icon on your Desktop until it opens.
2. Then gently click on the drive you want to name just enough until it becomes highlighted.
3. Then right click on the selected drive, and click Rename OR you can simply highlight the drive and click F2 key to enter the new name which is max 32 characters
Note: If the drive already contains a name simply over type a new name in the box
4. Then click on the white space anywhere with a left click

Note: This will work for Windows XP or any new OS later.I didnt provide for Windows 98 as very minimal amount of people use it.
