    If you don't see the volume control in your task bar 99% of the time that means that your sound card isn't being detected or the driver got corrupted.

    RIght click on 'my computer' then go into your hardware settings and see if your soundcard has a warning symbol next to it.

    If it does and you have an actual sound card as opposed to onboard sound. Power off remove the sound card power on delete the device if it's still there power off plug in the sound card, power up and reinstall the drivers for it.

    If it's on board sound same deal, only you can't unplug it you have to dissable it in the bios.
