Hi,

To resolve this issue, extract a new copy of=20

Sndvol32.exe from the Windows
XP CD to the system_root \System32 folder on your=20

computer's hard disk. To
do this, follow these steps:

Start/Run/CMD. In the command prompt window type:

X: (where X is your CD Drive letter)
CD \I386

Then use the expand command:
expand -r sndvol32.ex_ c:\windows\system32

Note: This assumes XP is installed on C: and that its=20

installed in the
Windows folder. If not, you'll need to adjust the=20

command accordingly.
Additionally, this must be an installable version of XP,=20

not a "recovery
CD".

my volume control no longer displays on my taskbar. I
tried the Start-Control Panel-Sounds & Devices-Show
Volume Control. Error message "Win cannot display the
volume control because the Volume Control program has=20

been installed. To install use Add/Remove Programs in=20
