    In Leopard running PD3 build 5592 on Macbook Pro.

    Can the icon of the '[C] Microsoft Windows XP' shared virtual drive be changed? It's pretty sweet that it appears at all on the OSX desktop but I have a very clean look and don't need this thing messing it up.

    I tried the 'get info' copy/paste with no change.

    Thanks.

    Have you tried the "Package Contents" approach?

    I'm on my g5 iMac so this will be a bit vague ... but I'm holding off on the new iMac until I'm sure there are not going to be any teething issues!

    Find the Parallels application in the Finder and rt-click
    Select "Show Package Contents"
    Open this folder and navigate to the Resources
    There might be an icon for the HD that you can change

    **** WARNING *****
    Back up
    Work on a copy
    Don't blame me if it all goes belly up :)

    HTH
