IM using windows 7. my volume control icon is missing, how do I get it back? __

I don't know what went wrong, but after using my laptop last night and start using it now, I think not my volume control icon, I'm pretty sure that I saw him last night because I tried to change my volume settings while playing downloaded from music.  Also, I downloaded Nero 9 last night it would be the cause? Please help me...

I'll wait for the answer, any help would be much appreciated... :-)

Step 2:

.. .restart computer and check again.

That's exactly what I did!... when restarting didn't work the 1st and the 2nd time, I restarted again!
I have a PC HP Compaq on Vista.
I installed the new HP D2660 printer yesterday,
restart the computer.
Each icon is a shortcut to a page of browser Firefox Web is empty, is not going anywhere.
The volume control is missing from the system tray.
No sound on YouTube videos for example.
I have double checked everything connected ok.
I downloaded an audio driver of HP/Compaq's Web site (which I can't do):
"Realtek High Definition Audio Driver Update for Vista
"Compaq Presario SR5152NX 2008-03-01, Version: 6.0.1.5548, 12.34 M
Restart the computer by following the instructions.
Panel, sound, speakers, Realtek HD Audio shows: work
Taskbar and Start Menu, right-click on the taskbar system tray, properties, Notification area... Volume icon is gray.
I now have in my taskbar icon of HP for RealtekHD Audio Manager but no Volume icon.
Sound now works well for example on a video YouTube online, but missing still Volume icon from the system tray.
Restarted the computer.
At hp.com, customer service for my computer model, instructions for the Volume icon on the taskbar:
Notification area of the taskbar, properties, right-click... Volume now shows black :/ Checked the box 'apply '.
"If the icon appears in the area of Notificatioin' you're ok... He did not show.
Restarted the computer.

Came here for Microsoft (it would have been easier if I had come here in the first place :/
Right-click on the taskbar, Notif.Area, clicked on 'Volume' once again, clicked OK... volume icon now present in Notif.Area AND on the taskbar. Yay
I consider myself lucky... I didn't have to do the 15 steps the registry editor or delete registry Explorer keys and shouldn't have, thank God.
Thank you
