Somehow, my volume control program is gone. I can't put
the volume control icon on the bottom taskbar to control
the volume. Any suggestions? I have tried to re-install
things from the CD but I can't seem to find the exact
program. When I go into Control Panel and elect to put
the volume controller in the taskbar, it tells me that
the volume control program is not installed and to go to
add/remove programs. However, I cannot find it to re-
install.
 
Hi,

Windows cannot display the volume control on the taskbar because the Volume
Control program has not been installed. To install it use Add/Remove
Programs in Control Panel.

To resolve this issue, extract a new copy of Sndvol32.exe from the Windows
XP CD to the system_root \System32 folder on your computer's hard disk. To
do this, follow these steps:

Start/Run/CMD. In the command prompt window type:

X: (where X is your CD Drive letter)
CD \I386

Then use the expand command:
expand -r sndvol32.ex_ c:\windows\system32

Note: This assumes XP is installed on C: and that its installed in the
Windows folder. If not, you'll need to adjust the command accordingly.
Additionally, this must be an installable version of XP, not a "recovery
CD".
