Umm - not sure about this since we're talking about the Home edition,
but can one take 'Ownership' of a drive via the permission settings?
This is what I'd recommend at this point if you were running Pro, but I
gave up on the 'dumbed' down Home version long ago and can't remember if
it allows that level of control. Perhaps Carl, or someone else on this
list who has more experience w/ XP Home can, confirm that.
If you can take 'ownership', then do so and then give yourself full
control over the drive.

Hi, Joe.
>
> How exactly are you doing it?
I go to: Start>Run>compmgmt.msc>Disk Management. I then right-click E:
(My
removable drive) and click "Properties"> General. I then type BackUps in
the
text box at the top. I then get the "Not Sufficient Rights" message. I
get
the same result if I right-click "E:" in "My Computer", click "Rename"
and
type in BackUps..
> Can you do it for a floppy or your C: drive?
Yes for both. In fact I can rename my floppy drive and the name remains
changed even after I've taken the floppy disk out.
Many Thanks,
Kind Regards
Ted.
