just create a desktop shortcut to "cmd".
As people are clearly allowed to attack me but I'm not allowed to defend myself, I no longer post to this site.

Or Start --> All Programs --> Accessories --> Command Prompt
To change the volume label: Windows Explorer, expand the Computer folder, right-click on c:\, select Properties then enter the name in the edit box.
