No, it is definetly the volume control. When I go to Acessories>Entertainment
...it's gone
and also when I try to re-add to the task bar it says I have to install it.
It disapeared after I did a windows provided clean up of un-used components.
That is the only way I think it uninstalled. I still have a soundcard and it
is activated. It is the volume that is uninstalled and missing.
