Hello,


I got my acer aspire one laptop for christmas. It is a ZG5 model. It was working perfectly fine in the beginning and randomly when i turned it on one day the icon bar at the bottom of the screen was gone. I was not able to view my battery status, volume bar, internet connection, etc. Also, my stupid friend tried installing this program called winzip and after attempting it I was no longer able to access my internet connection from the settings part as well. I am completely not able to connect to my wireless internet. Please help i'm in desparate need.


Thank you,
Amanda

Hi Amanda,

Im not sure if you have already find a solution to your GREEN VOLUME BAR INDICATOR problem, but anyways the solution is the "LAUNCH MANAGER"

Resinstall or enable this function and your volumne indicator should pop out when you turn the volumne dial.

If you are using and ACER notebook, you can use the ACER eRecovery Maanagement, then select the "Reinstall applications/drivers", from here just follow it step by step, but be sure to select only the driver for the LAUNCH MANANGER to avoid accidentally reformating your system.

I hope this is helpfull.

Yrag.

I am guessing that you are new to linux and might appreciate a few other links

https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Signpost/Questions#help
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SwitchingToUbuntu/FromWind­ows
http://www.linuxquestions.org

Also to get to forums specific to your particular version of linux try navigating through from this site
http://distrowatch.com
I think Aspire has Ubuntu so my first links should be good for that ;)

Good luck and regards from
Tom :)

Try this:

Method #1
Volume Icon Missing

1. Open task manager (Ctrl+Alt+Del)
2. In the Processes Tab, click to highlight “explorer.exe”
3. Then click “End Process” (desktop icons disappear)
4. Click on “File” “New Task (Run)”
5. In the Open box, type “start systray.exe”
6. Click OK
7. Again, click on “File” “New Task (Run)”
8. In the Open box, type “start explorer.exe”
9. Click OK again.

Everything comes back, including the Volume Icon.
Method #2
Volume control program - SndVol32.exe Missing
1. Go into your Control Panel and open Folder Options.
2. Under the View tab uncheck "Hide protected operating system files (recommended)", click Apply/OK.
3. Now go into Windows Explorer (Not Internet Explorer) and go to C:\Windows\System32\dllcache folder and open it.
4. Locate the sndvol32.exe file right click it, choose copy.
5. Next go to the C:\Windows\System32 folder and open it.
6. In the right pane right click an empty area and choose Paste.

Now you should have your volume icon back.

I used method 1 and it worked, (and I'm using vista) very easily. The only difference is that I could not write the word "start" before systray.exe or explorer.exe, I just wrote those program names. This may be due to a different system (vista) or the fact that mine runs in Italian. Thanks for the help, Steve!
