From: Carlos on 10 Feb 2010 18:23 Hi, It is a good practice, at least for me, to have a checklist of "to do" things after installing an OS. That way I don't miss anything. :) Carlos "rr(a)nospam.edu" wrote: > rr(a)nospam.edu wrote: > > after having to replace the motherboard and cpu and reinstall windows, I > > seem to have lost the network icon in the systray. how do I get it back? > > ok I found it. after clicking Control Panel then Network Connections > then double clicking the Local Area connction in the main panel then > clicking properties, the will be a check box for "Show Icon In > Notification Area When Connected". > > For some reason this was not checked. > . >
From: Charlie Russel - MVP on 10 Feb 2010 17:02 The default for wired connections is unchecked. For wireless connections, it's checked. At some point in the original installation you must have enabled the icon, and when you did the new install, that was lost. -- Charlie. http://msmvps.com/blogs/russel <rr(a)nospam.edu> wrote in message news:u2sk6ppqKHA.5736(a)TK2MSFTNGP05.phx.gbl... > rr(a)nospam.edu wrote: >> after having to replace the motherboard and cpu and reinstall windows, I >> seem to have lost the network icon in the systray. how do I get it back? > > ok I found it. after clicking Control Panel then Network Connections then > double clicking the Local Area connction in the main panel then clicking > properties, the will be a check box for "Show Icon In Notification Area > When Connected". > > For some reason this was not checked.

No offense, but your running XP 64 bit and you can't figure out this simple issue? Are you sure your running XP x64? -- -- <rr(a)nospam.edu> wrote in message news:etAy7gpqKHA.3464(a)TK2MSFTNGP06.phx.gbl... > Bobby Johnson wrote: >> What 64-bit version of Windows are you using? >> >> On 2010-02-10 15:04, rr(a)nospam.edu wrote: >>> after having to replace the motherboard and cpu and reinstall windows, I >>> seem to have lost the network icon in the systray. how do I get it back? > > > XP |
