I would like to remove items from the notification bar near to the clock on the taskbar. I have several items that come on every time I boot up that don't need to be there, when I want them I know where to find them.
I need the maximum CPU usage and memory space for 3d rendering. After I installed "windows genuine advantage notification" it became slow and with long rendering process +5 h. it crushes. So I looked at "add/remove programs" list, but it wasnt there.
My desktop is cluttered with icons I want to remove the clutter by removing icons from it.Is there any way out to do this with out losing any functionality?
Some of desktop icons can be removed without actually removing the program they represent, but others, when I right click to remove, will remove the entire program along with the icon. Is there some way I can remove just the icon without removing the program?
Loaded some Kodak software and the icon is showing in my task bar. Would like to remove it (I can manually close everytime I start up but its a pain). Also Everytime I add my Creative Soundblaster icon to the taskbar (to control my speaker volume) it disappears on re-booting (the regular microsoft speaker control also does not stay
Recently my father-in-law installed a program on to my computer. It set up a desktop icon, that did not get removed when it was uninstalled. I can't even right click on it and hit delete because it's not there, nor can I just hit delete. How can it be removed manually. It is a "share-to-web upload folder" from a hp digital camera. I aslo don't have access to the cd to reinstall it and uninstall again. Also I can't get task manager to work, I hit Ctrl, Alt, Delete and nothing. I right click on the task bar and click on task manager and nothing. Iwas working a few days ago, don't know what happened, anyway to get it back? I already tried system restore but only goes back a few days.
my Mom's computer is a HP Pavilion, she's using Windows XP (the original version and she hasn't updated from Microsoft since. when exactly did dinosaurs roam the earth? ) About two weeks ago, every time that she reboots it locks up the computer and you can hear the motor running constantly. When you go to shut it down a window comes up and asks for you to wait or end task, and the error is "Device10 Notification". The ONLY thing that she has put in recently is the HP 4 in 1 Copy/Scan/Print, but that was, at least, two weeks before the problem started. There is YET another error message that appears every once in a while, it's for HP Imaging Device, and you have to end task to get it to shut down, but this isn't a constant problem like the device10 is.
Like alot of people that build their own systems or constantly upgrade and switch out parts, I use a cracked copy of Windows XP on some of my builds. These are my own builds and if someone wants a new PC, the price of a genuine Windows OS is included in the price and they are given the disk. It is because of Microsofts asinine activation feature and the fact that I have 4 desktops and 2 laptops that I use the cracked copy. Anyways, my girlfriends dad's (a cop )laptop recently had a hard drive failure, and because he bought it with Windows preinstalled(no disk) he needed an OS. He didn't know any better and when I went over there last night to check on his laptop, up pops the MS genuine notification that has recently gone around.
for a while when we first turn on our laptop it won't work, it is not responding. However, the windows task manager does not show anything not responding. My only way to fix this problem is to tell the computer to restart & I will then get a "not responding" message saying that "socket notification sink" is not responding. I tell it to end the program & restart & I sometimes have to go through this over & over & over again until the computer is responding. The biggest part of the problem is that I do not know what the heck "socket notification sink" is! And if I do a search for it nothing comes up & I don't see it in the programs in the control panel & I never see it on the "processes" tab of the windows task manager.Can anyone help? What is it, do I need it, how do I deal with this? I just need the frickin' computer to work when I turn it on, I don't have time for this some days!
I can't get any sound to play when new Outlook Express email arrives. I use XP Media Center 2005. There is a sound icon in front of, New Mail Notification, & the Chimes sound (which I chose) does play when I press the test button to the left of Browse. BUT, it does NOT play when new mail arrives and Outlook Express is open or minimized. All other program default sounds do play. Also, with Outlook Express open, I clicked on Tools, Options, General, and there IS a check mark in front of, Play Sound When New Message Arrives.Is there something else that I should do to make the Chimes sound play when new email arrives?

I hope someone can help me with an error I keep on getting. I regularly get socket notification errors when Im using Mozilla, Internet Explorer and Outlook Express. When they happen, I am unable to access the internet until I reboot.
I upgraded from SP1 to SP2.Then I went to Microsoft's update site. All installed fine except the genuine advantage notification tool. I have been on the phone with Micro$oft for almost an hour, speaking with people in Phillipines and India.
This is third time that Windows genuine advantage notification (KB905474) is installed on my PC in the last six weeks or so. Is this happening to others as well?Also, when I check in "Add/Delete" I only see the last one being installed... the entry for the two previous ones are deleted.
I have already installed Windows "Genuine Advantage" Notification on my XP Pro machine. The last three days Windows Update has been asking me to install this "advantage" again. How can I get the gold shield off my taskbar?
I want to change the sound of my new mail notification. I checked the 'help' info on the control panel and got this---To assign sounds to program events 1.. Open Sounds and Audio Devices in Control Panel.
2.. On the Sounds tab, in the Program events list, click the program event to which you want to assign a sound
I have read the previous posts of the blue wallpaper coming up where you are infected with spyware. I have been cursed with this happenening to me. I have your directions but I must know what to do about my hijacthis log file. I need to know what to fix. Here is my log file. I will really appreciate if you can help me as soon as you have time. My computer is where I run my business and I am freaking out.
I have been looking for a good notification program forever. I've tried just about the first 10 pages of hits on google. It's either they don't have multiple account support or they don't work with gmail and thats what i need. I'm using outlook and i really like it. I've heard people say that there is a notification tool built into outlook but i can't figure out how to work it.
The default behavior for XP (SP3) is to run chkdsk at reboot as necessary. At this time it may find and automatically repair errors. In my case the "repair" was to delete an important folder (which I fortunately had a backup of.) After Windows comes up, there is NO NOTIFICATION that this has occurred.So if your drive is slowly going bad and you don't babysit your reboots (and make sure you can read fast), Windows may be deleting your data and you will never know about it. Over time your backups may become corrupted, unless you are diligent with archival backups.
I want to replace my standard mail notification with a wav file I've downloaded.
I went to; control panel/sounds and audio devices/sounds,and replaced it. It plays fine when I get mail, but the old notification plays after it.I removed the old notification before adding the new wav file and it still is happening.
New (3 months) Dell Vostro 1000 with Windows XP Professional. Last few days when trying to shut down I'm getting an error message "Device 10 Notification" with the option to cancel or end task. Either choice leads me to the same issue that the program is not responding. Sometimes the computer goes ahead and shuts down anyway, other times I have to shut down without ending the program.
I have a problem with my computer. When I start my computer, I get an error message that reads: "Cannot Create Shell Notification System Icon" I don�t know what is it, I think that has something to do with the icons on the toolbar, in fact, when my computer starts with that message, quite icons in toolbar disappear. I tried to restore system and nothing happens, except that the all icons appear again, but when I restart the computer they disappear again. I have already pass all antivirus and all programs related to cleaning, everything.
I have a Dell Inspiron 6400 Laptop that is one year old. It has 2GB of memory and a Duo Core T5600 processor. I am using Windows XP Home Edition with SP2. I have Norton 360 Version 2.0, Spy Sweeper, and Registry Mechanic installed. I have other programs such as Adobe Photoshop Elements 5.0, Microsoft Office 2003 with Word as my default, Google Email, and Family Tree Maker 2005 installed. Note that the laptop is a �small business� version instead of �Home and Home Office� version, if that makes any difference.
I have received my Windows Update notification that Service Pack 3 is ready for me to download. I have not downloaded yet. I have done some extensive research on problems with SP3 and have found a lot of information, much which is not too praising of SP3. However, most of the stuff that I have found on the internet is �older� stuff. I have searched MS data to see what they have posted about SP3 problems. What I am looking for here is has anyone had or know of any problems with SP3 that has been download say in the past three months or so?
In the notitifcation area, where the time is displayed, i now have time (e.g., 21.26) and underneath that is the day (e.g., Sunday). How can I get rid fo the day???
Whenever I start my computer the volume icon is missing from the notification area. When I go to the volume options there is a tick in the box that says 'Place volume icon in taskbar.' But if I take the tick out and click apply and the put the tick back in and click apply, it reappears. However the next time I start my computer, it has disappeared again.
