Custom Vista Hard Drive Icons For Windows XP

January 22nd, 2009 Posted in Recommended Software, Tips Tricks and Tweaks
When you work in an I.T. department you start to develop a negative bias towards Windows Vista. Personally I never use Windows Vista unless I’m troubleshooting a repair, or struggling to repair the continued damage their new print drivers have caused on our network printers. But, I will admit vista has some nice graphical features that, Windows XP is lacking.

You can use Vista hard drive icons on Windows XP

One of the nice graphical improvements is the new hard drive icons (pictured below). They display how much hard drive space you have left at any given time. Well now you can get these nifty icons without installing the dreaded vista operating system. The best part about is that you can do so for free with a small program. vistaharddriveicons
