Volume/audio system tray icon vanished, "no audio device installed

Help please: my audio/volume system tray icon has vanished and device
manager says that all sound devices/drivers are working properly and are up
to date, BUT - Sounds and Audio Devices Properties says I have no audio
device installed. If I try to open volume controls, I get this error:
"CiceroUIWndFrame: HelpCrs.exe - Entry Point Not Found - The procedure entry
point DoOpenPipeStream could not be located in the dynamic link library
ScrRun.dll."
Any ideas? I'm on an IBM ThinkPad T41, WXPP SP1

Open device manager and delete all sound hardware. Reboot, windows should
reinstall your sound drivers. Failing that try IBM's website for drivers.

Thanks! I was working my way to trying that and it worked! I never thought
I'd miss the annoying Windows startup and shutdown chords until I lost them.
