    Is it possible to see what is on my friend's computer's monitor?

    Is it possible to see what is on my friend's computer screen? I'm no expert but I'm trying help a friend install/configure (and how to use) some software. Is there a way to see what's on his computer screen through my PC? He lives in another state. It would be much easier to guide him if I...

    Volume bar not showing up on my monitor

    Hi PC H, In the event that HP doesn't have a solution to my problem, after a hard drive reformat, I just won't download the KB913580 update. I will be turning off windows auto-update too. By turning off windows auto-update, I'll be getting the red shield on my system tray warning me that my...

    Volume bar not showing up on my monitor

    Hi PC H. I did find the update. I can delete this update. Hmm, I'm wondering if I should remove it. What are the odds that an attacker would compromise my system? From Microsoft: Security Update for Windows XP (KB913580) A security issue has been identified in the Microsoft Distributed...

    Volume bar not showing up on my monitor

    Hi PC H I was planning on reformatting my hard drive anyways, but yes, updating windows would likely bring back my original problem. This way, I at least know for sure it's the windows update that's causing it. The file (Microsoft's MS06-015 Security Update - KB908531), that's suppose to have...

    Volume bar not showing up on my monitor

    Thanks for your help, PC H.:) Sorry for not responding sooner, I've been really busy. I followed your instructions to check the .NET Framework version and it is indeed 1.1. with Service Pack 1. It's likely I'll end up contacting HP sometime this weekend. I just wanted to post my problem in...

    Volume bar not showing up on my monitor

    I looked up software and driver updates by model and there was only one option. I downloaded and installed it, and it sorta worked, but now I'm back with the same problem as before. The only thing I have to show for it is the new "button" tab.

    Volume bar not showing up on my monitor

    The update worked, thanks PC Hobbyist. I don't like the new update, unfortunately. The audio level display is located on the bottom left of the screen rather then bottom center. And it's using thin bars instead of the thick ones as before. One other thing, one press of the keyboard's volume...

    Volume bar not showing up on my monitor

    I don't see a "buttons" tab, so I guess I'll try the update. Thanks. I've had this computer for the past 7 months and had been fine up until a few hours ago.

    Volume bar not showing up on my monitor

    Thanks for the response guys.:) It's not the sound icon that I'm talking about. When I press the up/down audio buttons on my keyboard, a visual indicator displays on screen showing the sound level. Here's an illustration: EDIT: I wrote this message before "PC Hobbyist's" post [/IMG]

    Volume bar not showing up on my monitor

    The green volume bar indicator doesn't display on my monitor when I adjust the volume anymore. How do I fix this? I recently installed trial versions of AnyDVD, CloneDVD2 and DVDFab Platinum if this helps. I have a HP WinXP Media center edition PC.
