I'm not sure if this belongs here..but anyways..
We wer messing around with an external hard-drive the other day(It's quantum)
Trying to paste a new icon into it's get info box...we could copy from another
get info box...or ResEdit...but as soon as we got into the Drives get info
dialog the paste option just greyed out...so my quick witted colleague went
and deleted the Icon Resource from the Icon file on the Drive...The one where
the Masking Icon is stored I believe..So anyway now it should come up with the
normal icon ...Maybe... nope now we get a unknown file icon...Text Only Icon
or some such..And we still can't paste an icon into it's Info Dialog...very
wierd...I don't think it's affecting the drives performance..how could it..
but it is annoying to have the Text only Icon for it...
Anyone have an idea?
Thanx in advance
