Where did the Volume Control go?

[Phil]

And we told you. It isn't in add/remove components. It should be installed
by default when xp is installed. If it isn't installed and you don't see it
in: Start, all programs, accessories, entertainment, then you'll need to
reinstall your sound card drivers to get it back and up and working. The
volume control and your sound drivers are tied together.
I don't see what the problem is here. We read the subject line and gave you
some suggestions. Did you even try any of them? Just because the answer
doesn't seen right to you doesn't mean it isn't right. You're flipping out
for no reason. We explianed to you it's not where you think it is in
add/remove components. And MS didn't "move" it anywhere. If you have no
volume control then your sound card drivers are messed up. Plain and simple.
But if you don't want to listen then there's not much we can do to help you.
You have to try things to see if they work. It's called trouble shooting.
