I am using Windows XP on my computer. I have a problem with trying to keep the horn or should I say volume control icon on my taskbar. In order for it to stay, I have to go into the control panel after I turn on the computer. I have to then go into sound, uncheck, hit apply, then recheck and hit apply in order for my icon to show on the bottom of my taskbar. I have no idea why when it is checked off to be on my taskbar it just won't stay there after I turn off my computer and then on. Can anyone help me figure this thing out? I have done scan disks, defrag, everything that I can think of to get it to automatically come up along with my virus icons, etc. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

Jump to PostMan reinstall the ServicePack or the Operating system. Did you install your sound card "software" not drivers on that computer? Let us know.
Jump to PostIf you right click on the start menu, then goto properties, there should be a box called 'hide inactive icons' uncheck that and see if this fixes your issue.
