I installed Windows 2000 Professional in a dual boot with Windows 98 SE. The
operating systems are on different partitions. I redirected the 'My
Documents' folder in Win2k to the same 'My Documents' folder being used by
Win98. After doing this, the 'My Pictures' folder's icons is just the
generic blank paper icon in My Computer's address bar. When I'm in 'My
Documents' the 'My Pictures' icon is a normal closed folder icon. The
problem is only when I open 'My Pictures', the icon in the address bar is
wrong.

I have deleted ShellIconCache in Win98 and rebooted, I have also tried using
Tweak UI to "rebuild icons". Neither has fixed the problem. All other icons
appear to be normal.
