Hi,

Not sure what you mean by tick off.

You could try right clicking the Start orb, select Properties, click the Notification Area tab.

Tick Hide inactive icons box , click Customise and click items to activate the drop down box and select what you want them to do .

Then click OK.



Hope it helps

No, he actually means when right click start menu bar, and clicking properties. It will go to a screen. Here's a pic of it attached.


If you noticed for me, I can't check off power since I'm running a desktop computer, so make sure you have a soundcard with the proper drivers installed
That fixed my problem last time.

Hi,

If you mean the Volume, Network and Power icons are greyed out, see this tutorial:
