Actually, just open Explorer.  Then, where you would see the C drive (as
an icon), drag C to the Explorer icon in the Taskbar.  Whalla, C: shows
up in your pinned list, so you can click that any time to just open C:
(You can do this for any folder/drive you want)

Hi John,

I am on Windows 7. I just created a new shortcut on the desktop
to point to C:\ and put it on my taskbar ...
It thinks I'm trying to modify the system and warns me everytime it's
clicked otherwise. PITA.

Nope, didn't work.
