Next: Windows XP System Tray tool tips hide behind the taskbar (mostly) when you over your mouse over them...
From: doxideb on 13 Sep 2009 04:29 ***ATTENTION: LEM*** Finally back after fire delays, etc. I have tried several times to do the 'run' and 'cmd' as outlined by you and is also displayed here: http://www.jakeludington.com/windows_xp/20060922_windows_volume_control_program_has_not_been_installed.html I've reached the point where, as he says, the instructions are misleading because I cannot add the program... nor do I know which program to add. When I open the 'cmd' box, the info is already there to direct the path to documents & settings. If I type in 'e:' as instructed, I'm told that is an invalid command, as with every other entry I've tried. I took a screenshot but how do I display it for you to see? I keep coming back to the point where I feel I need the XP installation CD, however I didn't receive one since XP was preloaded in my laptop. I thought I had a brilliant idea by running my Office 2007 Home & Student in 'repair' mode... it took about an hour but gave no indication as to what it repaired ~ all I know is that I still do not have the icon in my tray! I can get volume by accessing the 'sounds & devices' and un-muting it, but that's not the point of all of this. The point is that it worked as desired up to a certain point, then stopped and disappeared. Thank you again for your time & patience.
