This may be what you are doing, but go in to the control panel to sounds and audio and press enter. The first tab you come to is the volume tab and I think the second thing you tab to is put volume control on the taskbar. Se if you can check it and see what happens.

On my Windows XP, home edition computer with JAWS version 5.0 installed on it, I have problems making adjustments in the volume sub-heading that is found in the "sounds and audio" heading in the control panel. > When ever I attempt to do such things as place a "volume" icon in my computers system tray for example my computer will start spouting off that "Windows cannot display the volume on that task bar because the volume control program has not been installed. To install it use add/remove programs in the control panel". > This seems like an appropriate thing to do except for the baffling matter of where might one go to find this "volume" program that is lurking hidden in the add/remove programs heading of the control panel? > > This would all be fine and dandy except for the fact that prior to this problem happening about a week ago I had no problems adding/removing a volume icon in the system tray/task bar or modifying the microphone recording and volume levels in the "sounds and audio" heading in the control panel, as I do now. > > As another addition to this perplexing matter all other volume controls work within my computers system such as adjusting the volume on media/audio players etc. > > Any thoughts on the matter, aside from new and improved phrases of which to call my dastardly computer(grin), would be kindly accepted. > Tootled doo, > Dennis > -- > To post a message to the list, send it to jfw@xxxxxxxxxxxxx > To unsubscribe from this mailing list, send a message to jfw-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with the word unsubscribe in the subject line. > > If you have any concerns about the list, post received from the list, or the way the list is being run, do not post them to the list.
