Make the My Computer icon the OSX Hard Drive Icon?

I'm trying to do a search here on the forums but I cant quite get a proper hit! Can someone help me find how to do this?

Also, Anyone have the standard Mac Office Icons? I find too many varients, I just want the standards

well I've installed flyakiteOSX, but it made the MY Computer the apple smile icon rather than the hard drive. I'm wondering where in fly a Kite I go to change it to the hard drive!

I am not sure if rnp got this resolved, but shockme17, is completely correct. Easy as pie. :)

Yup, it worked like a charm. Sorry for the "dumb" question, but it had been so long since I last messed with skinning windows

Hey quick follow-up response.

I changed the "my computer" icon as you mentioned just to test things out and after a reboot, the icon changed itself back to the original icon. Have you ever had this happen to you?

I thought this was weird...

never happened for me. make sure that when you change it, hit apply, then ok. and make sure it windows shuts down properly.

@rnp614:

You said you have flyakiteOSX up and running and as far as I know there is a restore utility (called system files updater) coming with flyakiteOSX that restores all icons that might have been changed during a windows update. Perhaps this prog reverts the changed my computer icon back to normal. Don't know how to turn it off though cause i always found it very useful.
