Thanks for that

OK, after booting into Safe Mode and much fiddling with the security tabs, rolling up of the left trouser leg, handstands, et cetera, I managed to get into Autorun .inf. It was empty. I deleted it. Correct label now shows up in WE. It seems the OS assigned the SATA drives as ReadyBoost Devices...

Yes but there used to be a renew adaptor button in vista that did the trick without having to go across the room to the Switch. :)

I can't open or delete them

It is. It shows up as 10/100/1000 Mpbs in Device Manager. I rebooted the 1 Gpbs Switch and the adapter is now at 1 Gpbs

No setting for 1Gbps?!

You'll have to enable show hidden and system files in Control Panel: Appearence and personalization: Folder Options. Autorun.inf files are usually on CD and DVD to play automatically. Why there on my hard drives I don't know

There are Autorun.inf files on the drives I am labeling. I think that could be something to do with it. I can't get into them. I think it is something with the system thinking SATA drives are ReadyBoost Devices

Is there an Autorun.inf in the relevant drives?

Reset network adapter? I want to reset the network adapter to release it from 100 Mbps to 1 Gbps. I can't find a button to do this. I could go to a command prompt and us ipconfig but am looking for the setting in Windows 7.

Where is the setting to reset the adapter?

It's peculiar. My understanding from DOS is that the label is written to the disk so it should show up the same in WE and DM. I'll boot into safe mode with a command prompt and see what shows up.

In Explorer in Properties it's blank. Killed and restarted explorer, no change

Okay. I labelled E: as echo and F: as foxtrot. Changed in DM but not in WE. Why is your C: drive called Fart? :)
