    What do you mean by missing and disabled? Can you be more specific about the programs? They might need to be re-installed or perhaps you just need to go into settings and re-enable the system tray icons.

    If you're talking about the volume buttons on the notebook itself or other "special" buttons like email,internet etc. most vendors have applications that control those and enable them. You should be able to get it at their support site. As far as the applications that were next to the clock, you will have to reinstall those applications to get them back. How did you loose them, did you reinstall?
