Win XP Home. Only comments, no need for anyone to reply unless they want.
1. I've ten icons for things in my Sys Tray. If I do a registry clean with
just about any cleaner the speaker icon seems to be the one that can be
pretty well guaranteed to not appear on rebooting, but then it will almost
always reappear during a second reboot - though one time it took a third
reboot.
2. When I click on my account (adminstrator) stuff starts loading up, and
from trial and error I get the impression that if I move the mouse even the
slightest whilst that is going on then quite often the speaker icon won't
appear in the sys-tray, but the other nine icons all do. So it's like during
booting Windows sees a mouse movement as an instruction to skip loading the
speaker icon. At first I thought that
must be ridiculous, but on thinking about it I'm wondering if it could be
during booting Windows has to look at where the mouse set the icon's volume
slider, so it can load it ready set at whatever audio level it was last left
at, and if by chance the mouse is moving whilst it is checking that the whole
thing defaults to skipping the speaker icon setup.
Don't know if it's relevant but I've an icon in my Systray that's called
"SiS Utility Tray v 2.09 L" which seems to be for changing the monitor
display and also the master control for exiting the Sys Tray (No I won't try
any experiments with it in case I end up with no monitor).
Anyway, as I said, only comments in case an expert wants to look into them,
no need for anyone to reply.
