There are two volume icons that can build to the notification portion of the system tray (next to the time).
The gray speaker icon comes with Vista and is for adjusting Windows volume levels and (as you noticed) the orange volume icon is for Realtek HD Audio manager.
They both essentially do the same thing, but Realtek gives you a fancy interface, more options, and hides the Windows icon (on some models - I think).
I believe you can uninstall through add/remove programs in Control panel. Then, you can reinstall through HP's Recovery Manager program.... read about it here.

Please post rather than send me a Message. It's good for the community and I might not be able to get back quickly. - Thank you.

  • Wifi is gone after downloading or sleep modus Lenovo G580

    Hi everyone,
    Can someone help me with a computerproblem I have been troubling with eversince I bought the computer?
    About two weeks ago I bought the Lenovo G580 laptop at the same moment as my little brother.
    Now we are dealing with the same problems eversince: The Wifi connection is gone after closing the laptop and letting it go in sleep mode. The sign in the right bottom corner is still there and it says that it is connected, but when I open Google chrome it won't go any further then the homepage. My little brother has the same problem, although I also have it when I have downloaded something. I know that the Wifi is still working because it still works on my Iphone. Does anyone have a solution to this problem?

    Does the problem occur when you are browsing the web also? I am experiencing wifi problem as well. My wifi connection will stop working and become Limited. Mine will disconnect every 30 minutes or so. I have to disconnect and reconnect again in order to browse the web. My computer is just 2 weeks old.

  • Flash buttons gone after active-update

    Hi,
    Just performed the active-contect update for flash and
    dreamweaver.
    After the flash update, nothing had changed. Still needed to
    click to activate a button, made in flash (8).
    Then I installed the dreamweaver update 8.0.2., also with
    updates for active content.
    After opening the pages in Dreamweaver 8 I got the promised
    question what I wanted to do with the <object> items.
    I choose to update them.
    Now everything worked fine when I testet the page on my own
    server (PC) but the oploaded files where NOT.
    All flashbuttons where gone, they just didn't appear!
    It took a while untill I found out what the problem was.
    Since everything worked fine on my own server, It had to be
    something with the uploaded files.
    All pages where changed, uploading the swf files didn't bring
    the solution, so it had to be something else.
    My site has many folders, it's a big site.
    When I checked the folders on my own servers I found a new
    folder called: Scripts
    Uploading this folder solved the problem.
    Nowhere in the manual, help files or explanations is
    mentioned there will be a new folder called Scripts.
    When you have a small site with a few folders, you will
    easily spot it, but when you have more then 50 folders.....
    Regards,
    Eric

    Good point, it should say so in the Help files - you might
    want to let Adobe
    know of that oversight.
    Personally, I was pretty happy to have that problem solved so
    quickly and
    automatically by Dreamweaver - seemed like a big convenience
    to me..

  • Epson 3800 not working with Mavericks even after downloading new driver

    Epson 3800 printer stoped working when I upgraded to Mavericks. Downloaded the latest Epson driver, v9.17, keep getting error message and not able to print although I can add the printer in Printers/Scanners. Been on the phone with Epson, no results, they recommend talking wth Apple. Hah! Anyone else with this issue? Do I need to go back to Mountain Lion? How big a deal?

    Is it an AL-C3800? If so, http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3669 shows it's supported. Did you try deleting and re-adding the printer? Installing updates?
    If not of that works, try deleting the the /Library/Printer/EPSON and the /Library/Caches/Epson/ folder and then reinstalling the updates.

  • Button gone after ios5 update

    Where did the button that opened all safari pages go after iOS 5 update?

    Safari now uses tabs to open new pages. That feature for the open windows no longer exists. Tap on the + sign at the right side of the toolbar to open a new tab and you can enter the web address in the url bar or use the seach field to find whatever you are looking for.

  • Why is my custom ringtone gone after downloading ios6?

    I downloaded ios6 and now my ringtone is gone.  How do I get it back?  It shows up in my library.  I have tried resyncing and that doesn't work.

    We can't fix anything since we're not Apple. If you don't like the new iOS8 photo system, you should tell Apple your feelings here:

  • Retake button gone after Reviewing Quiz

    Scenario: You give a user the option to both Review Quiz and Retake Quiz. User chooses Review. When they get to the end of the Review the Retake button is gone. Is there a way to show the Retake button in this situation? Ideally a person could first Review and then Retake.

    Unfortunately no.  If you flunk the quiz on an attempt (by not achieving a passing score) you get the option to Retake Quiz, but the button doesn't appear if you pass.
    If you click the Review Quiz option, you do not get the option to Retake Quiz once you get back to the Quiz Results slide.
    I think the basic reasoning behind this is that for a quiz to be a true assessment of the learner's knowledge, they should not be able to just review the quiz, find out all the answers, and then just retake the quiz immediately to answer all the questions.  That would be like just giving them the answers for free.
    So if you review quiz, you need to relaunch the lesson before you can attempt the quiz again.

  • All photos in Faces gone after external hard drive transfer to new MacBook Pro

    Hello all,
    I had a upto date 6 year old Macbook G4 that I regularly backed up onto a external hard drive.
    I recently purchased a new Macbook Pro OS 10.8.3 with iPhoto version 9.4.3.
    I imported all info from the external hard drive to the new MacBook Pro. Seems most all data transferred ok.
    With the following exception with iPhoto application, I have over 17,000 photos in the iPhoto library.
    On opening iPhoto on my new MacBook after import all the iPhoto seems to be working ok, Places, library, folders, editing etc.
    The one problem seems to be with Faces. When opening faces it loads and the individual recognised face folders are there, with perforated outline
    but no photos. No phots in any individual Faces folders.
    All Faces folders are greyed out, the number of each of the faces in each folder is correct with names and are again all grey out with a perforated outline.
    Help and information on how to get the pictures of the photos back into the indivudual folders which are still in the Faces page but are blank.
    Thank you, signed "Faceless Faces"

    I imported all info from the external hard drive to the new MacBook Pro. Seems most all data transferred ok.
    Exactly what did you do? With iPhoto there is no "importing" involved - you simply drag the iPhoto library intact as a single entity to the pictures folder of the new machine and launch iPhoto letting it convert as needed
    With the following exception with iPhoto application,
    You would do nothing with the iPhoto application - you use the new iPhoto application installed on yoru new system - you only move the iPhoto library as noted above
    You can try Back up your iPhoto library, Depress and hold the option (alt) and command keys and launch iPhoto - rebuild your iPhoto library

  • IPhoto gone after restoring hard drive.  Can I get it back?

    I had to restore HD drive from disk in order to open computer, now I have no iPhoto. The Macbook is only 3 weeks old, and I believe iPhoto came installed. What can I do without having to upgrade to Aperture now.
    R

    Perform a custom install from the MacBook's disks and install only that component if possible; if not, use Pacifist to install it.

  • My music is gone after download iOS5 and iCloud?

    I downloaded iOS 5 and iCloud and cannot find my music.

    is your music still in your iTunes Library? If not do you use time machine backup?

  • HT1766 apps gone after download

    I downloaded ios7 without backing up.  now purchased apps no longer appear on screen. but in app store they are all there to open. i can't download again because of this.

    My guess is that the apps were not in the iTunes library on the computer on which you did the update.  Apps )and ther items like music)are nt in the backu that iTunes makes as the first step of the backup.
    To redownload:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store

  • My music and tv libraries are gone after downloading version 7.2

    Help! My music and tv libraries are not there when I open itunes. My son's library is available on his account on the same computer but mine is not. I'm not sure what to do.

    Same with all of mine too in UK.
    Glad it's all of them - means it's an Apple issue with servers and I don't need to restore via iTunes.
