• Its icon does not appear in the notification area - no audio device is installed

  NO INSTALLED AUDIO DEVICE & NO SOUND, VIDEO & GAME CONTROLLER NOT TAB ON DEVICE MANAGER

  I had some problems with the sound on my laptop... sometimes the volume icon will suddenly disappear from the notification area and I can not add it even because it is grayed off the coast, unless I restarted my laptop... and after an automatic Windows Update I suddenly got errors on my sound whenever I play a game and try to mute it. After that, the volume in the notification area icon got a red X and it had the "NO AUDIO DEVICE IS INSTALLED" message!

  I tried everything I found on the net without success. I can't even enable or disable my audio driver because I have NOT any how 'audio, video controller & game' tab on my DEVICE MANAGER! I can't uninstall & re-install my drivers either because it would not uninstall first, even in safe mode. Reinstall the driver will give me an error message saying "No. MEDIA FOUND to this DEVICE DRIVER" !

  I also tried to reformat my laptop and goes back to factory settings, restore my system to a point where I wasn't having problems still, it reboot several times, always check the Device Manager if somehow the tab for its controller will magically appear and try several times to reinstall my driver... This gave me No. SOLUTION !

  I don't know what to do more and forums on other sites do no help either. I don't want to dirty my registry for fear of totally play my laptop.

  HOW can I SOLVE THIS PROBLEM? I just got windows update and not only I have problems with the audio on my laptop but I can't play games on facebook either!

  Hi Annetalla,

  You can uninstall the current sound driver from Device Manager and restart the computer to load the generic driver and check if it makes a difference.

  1. click on Start.

  2. type devmgmt. msc in the search box start and press to enter.

  3. right click on the speaker and select Uninstall.

  4 restart the computer, and vista will load the generic drivers.

  If an audio device on board, you will see the option in the BIOS. To do this, you need to read the manual that came with your computer or contact the manufacturer for this.

• Volume icon does not appear in the notification area of the taskbar

  I recently added a logitech webcam.   Since then, the volume icon does not appear in my taskbar.   the only way to adjust the volume on the internal speakers is via the control panel.   How to restore the "speaker" icon?

  Thank you.

  Thank you.

  I don't think he has none to do with the webcam. Just a coincidence.

  Use this tutorial:

  http://www.Vistax64.com/tutorials/106787-notification-area-system-icons.html

  The tutorial has 3 methods.

  Method is a general method which, unfortunately, rarely works because the box, you need to check is grayed out (unclickable).

  Two method is only for Vista Ultimate and Enterprise.

  Three method applies to all versions of Vista.
  Use the Reg file download. It is simple and easy.

  * Make sure that you restart the computer to perform the procedures.

• Intermittently after the reboot, the option "Hide when minimized" in the Task Manager Win XP is too effective; the CPU usage icon does not appear in the notification area. Sometimes restart heals, sometimes not.

  The Options menu of the Windows Task Manager includes "hide when minimzed ', to display an icon in the area of notification, but not on the traskbar. I leave that option checked all the time to control the percentage of processor; but sometimes without apparent cause, after I reboot there is no icon in the area. Is there a way to fix this?

  Hello ronks,

  Thank you for visiting the Microsoft answers community.

  The reason for which the icon is not in the system tray is because the Task Manager is closed not minimized when you start your computer. To do this, you could do the following:

  -Go to my computer > C: > Windows > System32
  -Locate in Taskmgr
  -Create a shortcut > right click on the shortcut > click on cut
  -Navigate to my computer > C: > Documents and Settings > username (your username) > Start Menu > programs > startup
  -Paste in the startup folder

  -Right click on the shortcut > click Properties
  -Less run > pull down the menu and select Minimized > click OK > close window

  Now every time that you restart the Task Manager will be launched in a minimized state.

  Hope this helps Chris.H

• Sleep icon does not appear in the power options

  I just closed the lid of my Lenovo ThinkPad T460s only once but since then I can't see "sleep" icon under options of 'power' to the main screen. How can I see the icon of sleep again?

  

  Hello

  The reason why sleep does not appear in the power options is your Intel graphics card.

  Please try to disable Intel graphics in the Device Manager and turn it back on.

  If it still shows yellow bang, try to download the latest Intel graphics driver from Lenovo site.

  I hope this information helps.
