Guest Paul Smith Posted September 10, 2008 Posted September 10, 2008 Dear All, Usually, I had the Intel® Pro Wireless icon being shown in the task bar. Suddenly, it disappeared from the task bar. How can I restore this icon in the task bar? Thanks in advance, Paul

See if there's an update driver set from Intel for your WiFi card and the installer software should configure it and return it to the tray. Or, see if in the Intel Proset Wireless config tool there's an option for "show in tray". - Thee Chicago Wolf
Guest PA Bear [MS MVP] Posted September 10, 2008 Posted September 10, 2008 Re: Wireless connection icon disappeared from the task bar Are you referring to the taskbar or the Notification Area to the immediate left of the clock? Did you just install WinXP SP3? Is your wireless connection still working? If there's a left-pointing arrow to the immediate left of the clock and you click on it, does the icon appear again in Notification Area? -- ~Robear Dyer (PA Bear) MS MVP-IE, Mail, Security, Windows Desktop Experience - since 2002 AumHa VSOP & Admin http://aumha.net DTS-L http://dts-l.net/ Paul Smith wrote: > Usually, I had the Intel® Pro Wireless icon being shown in the task > bar.
