Getting back volume cont. in task bar

Hello,
I was wondering on how to get the volume control back in task bar.It dissapeared after downloading new drivers from creative.com the volume control in program files>accesories is still there and working sound throughout the computer is also working.

Also I don't understand how the downloaded drivers from creative.com works,all I did was double clicked on the setup icon,the thing extracted(to God knows where) and then it says everrything's done and click FINSH to restart the computer....is this all I do?Can I delete the driver file which has the Setup and a LIB file?

----another thing the sound card is a Creative Sound Blaster PCI which is an integrated feature...


Any help is greatly appreciated...
