Speaker icon
I have it set to appear in the taskbar (XP) on bootup.
Half the time, it gets skipped for some reason and doesn't appear. Since I set the default as muted this is a bit of a pain, and I have to access it through control panel when this happens.
Does anyone know the name (presumably a .exe?) of the file which fires up the icon?

Could you check the settings for 'Volume'? Rt Click 'Start' then properties then tick hide inactive and customise. See what settings you have for the Speaker icon. Might be worth a fiddle.

Vulcanised, my XP desktop machine does the exact same thing! I usually hibernate rather than shut down to avoid the occurrence as much as possible.
It's been doing this for years. 50:50 chance whether it boots correctly or not.
