How do you get Drive letter visible in MyComputer in XP / 2K ?

EDIT I want to hide the comment XP/2K displays as it hides the Drive letter when you display Details in MyComputer unless you widen the field.

Win 95 has the drive description first as well, then the drive letter.

for example, "MyCDrive (C:)" .

I'm checking out if it can be done the way that you want in Win 2K & XP.

Bleh, short of a file hack... you could always change the name of the drive to the null char (ALT+255)... it's not perfect, and you have to sacrifice the drive label, but it's quick n' dirty.
