Windows Taskbar

Hi All,
 
This is really a mundane, rather silly question but it's driving me crazy!  All I want back (how it disappeared I'll never know!) is `Data currently protected from single disk failure" on the right side of my taskbar.  I have tried and tried and tried to put it back using "properties," then  "customize," then -- well went through all the normal channels (I put it on "always show) but it WILL NOT SHOW UP so I can't see the message that is ever so reassuring!!  I had to put back on the volume control using the control panel but do not understand why I can't get the folder (or whatever) to "stick" on the taskbar for this function!
 
Thanks in advance for your help and patience -- I know there are more important issues -- gawd knows I've had my share over these two years with Dell . . .

    I am going to guess but I think you may have a issue with the monitor feature of the intel matrix storage software..
     
    If you search in program files it will be something like intel matrix and should bring up a utility.. in there is more than likely the option to have it run at startup or in systray for monitoring.
     
    Mind you you may be using the nvidia raid storage as well without knowing your model i can't be sure... but check your model on the support site look for raid and you should find a monitor or storage utility.. install that or check that on your system and you should get that status back
     
    Good luck

    SO SORRY.  Here's my computer info:  DIM E520, Intel Pentium D Processor 820 with dual core technology (2.8 GHz,  800 FSB),  2 GB DDR2 SDRAM at 533 MHz, 160 GB hard drives, Dell Data Safe (secured storage and data recovery solution); backup mediafor XP Professional Dimension E520.  Hope this helps.
     
    Thank you.
     
    P.S.  This is regarding the issue of not being able to pput the "Data is Protected From a Single Disk Failure" feature that pops up upon startup of the computer back onto the task bar even though I go over and over in "properties," "customize," and highlight that folder and tell it "always show."
