    Volume icon missing


    Volume icon has disappeared from notification area. In control panel, under "Notification Area Icons", it is not there. When I click on the "Turn notifications on or off", it is greyed out and can't be accessed.
    I saw a thread to download a "reg" file to turn it on, and it hasn't worked.
    Any other ideas?
