If you want to extract sndvol32.exe from your CD, you'll likely need the
expand command. Depending on your CD, you may extract (sorry, expand)
your file from the \i386 folder or from a .cab file. Use "expand /?" to
find out details of syntax.

Run "sfc /scannow" with your CD handy. If that doesn't work then run
"expand X:\i386\sndvol32.ex_ C:\Windows\system32\sndvol32.exe"

X is your CD drive letter.

If that doesn't work, check the CD for the correct location of the
sndvol32.ex_ file. Use Windows search. Then modify X:\i386\sndvol32.ex_
to the correct location for that compressed copy of sndvol32.exe on the
CD.

sndvol32.exe error

After HOURS- I tried this-- Put your WinXP cd disk in your CD drive. Click "Exit" but leave disk in drive. Go to control panel--Add/Remove windows components. Make sure the box next to Accessories is checked. Click OK and let it run. When it is finished, go back to control panel and choose "Sounds,Speech and Audio Devices" and then "Sounds and Audio devices" and check the "Place volume icon in the task bar" Good luck.. It worked for me--Let me know!!!
