System tray icons sometimes missing.
My laptop is an Acer 5738Z with Windows 7 and NIS 2010.
Sometimes one or two of my system tray icons are missing on booting up.If I switch off and reboot,they magically reappear.The icons that should be there are:-
Battery.
Network.
Volume.
Norton.
I have them all ticked to show icon and notifications.
Does anyone else have this problem?Is it a bug in Windows 7 or is it a fault on my laptop?
I'd be grateful for any help and comments.
