    Re: Windows Volume Control Won't Open Anymore

    Hey there,
    I'm using Windows xp personal edition.
    had the same problem: my icon was on the taskbar but when double clicked the volume control opened but was invisible.
    I kind of assumed it was opening at x and y values outside of the screen and actually tried upping my screen res to find the stupid thing.
    Anyway that fix for windows 98 in the regedit worked for me.
    I was initially confused but found that the x and y values were in a sub folder from my volume control called advance ac97 audio which was probably my sound card brand or something.
    anyway the x value was like 41562 or something and y was 562 so putting 5 and 5 in sorted it.

    thanks!

        Hi, I'm using XP and I can't make this solution work. I don't come up with a volume control or x and y coordinates to change......any ideas? Thanks.

              Have you tried all of the suggestions from this other thread on the same subject? http://forum.dbpoweramp.com/showthread.php?t=1156
              There's a lot there. :D Surely one of these can fix it.
