system tray

Hey, so I was using 7 with actual multiple monitors for ages, but realized 8.1 had better dual monitor support. I don't even need to use other software which is nice. But the second monitors task bar doesn't display the clock, or the system tray or anything, just the start button. And when...

hello, all I received a custom built computer for Christmas almost a year ago, in that I won't be able to name my system specs or hardware, and it was working perfectly fine up until a few weeks. I don't recall installing or uninstalling any important programs but here is an outline of the...

So I have a 4 TB drive mirrored to an identical drive. My question is, if/when a drive fails, how will I be notified? Will something popup in the system tray? Or will I get some error message or what? I assume there is something that happens.. otherwise this software RAID would literally be...

A problem I've not run into before on XP...I'm using a wireless adapter to connect to my router, therefore I don't need a hard-wired connection at this time. Therefore I have the ethernet network disabled in the Device Manager, and the Notification Icons set to always hide the one for LAN, but...

Some time ago I tried the bbLean shell for Windows: Here's my bbLean desktop: Link Removed I think it's a nice shell replacement but I still prefer using the original Windows 7 shell. When I switched back to the original shell I noticed that some of the system tray boxes don't have the border...

I had found that, to not have my programs visible in the TaskBar (ie: DSNTODAY), I must, in the General Tab, select 'run whether user is logged on or not'. Unfortunately, tho logically, this also seems to apply to sound (ie: the Win32API BEEP and MESSAGEBEEP). When I select 'run only when...

I have an HP Pavilion dv6-2157sb running Windows 7 Ultimate SP1, 64-bit OS. I bought it in the summer of 2010 for law school. The laptop has served me faithfully through law school. After almost three years, however, it began booting up with the time being incorrect. Commonly, the time stamp...

My W7 system tray network icon "normally" shows a terminal with a wired network symbol in the upper left corner of the terminal and nothing in the lower right corner.

The HP Printer Display Hack is a simple background application that periodically checks the current price of a selected stock and sends it to the display of HP (and compatible) laser printers. IntroductionThis app is based on an old hack from back to at least 1997 that uses the HP Job control...

I have been using my desktop for a while now, and I notice that even when the memory, CPU are active or inactive but not at a high usage level, a single task (such as right clicking on a tray icon) or opening a program will stall the hard drive, as disk access shoots up to 100% or near it...
