• Problem with the icon 'Remove hardware safely' on the bottom of the screen

  How can I get the icon 'Remove hardware safely' to stop making its sound? It makes the bonk sound which indicates that you can remove your device. It slows down the PC games and is just annoying. I used the troubleshooter and checked all USB options that have been listed under my 'pilot' and the message I get says that they are enabled and work correctly. When he makes his tone, the icon in the taskbar disappears and reappears then. It does not seem to be no harm in or affecting any other thing except the PC games we play on our computer. Any help is greatly appreciated.

  Hi Chrisjurrians,

  To turn off the sound for the connection / disconnection of devices, follow these steps:

  a. click Start and select Control Panel

  b. click on device sound and Audio

  c. under device sound and Audio, click its tab

  d. under program events, select the device connection and in the Strait, make scrolling the drop down for None.

  e. also repeat the same for disconnection device

  This should do the trick.

  Let us know if that helps.

• How can I permanently delete an icon from the notification area?

  Whenever I start an icon composed of the white black '9' in a field number appears in the Notification area of my desktop tool bar.

  Whenever I start, I have 'customize' on the toolbar and "hide" icon.  It always comes back.

  Apparently, it has no function.  Make a right click on it, in the hope of finding an option 'discard', produces no response.

  How can I delete the icon?

  My OS is Windows Vista 64 bit Home Premium edition.
