How do I get my "volume level control bar" indicator back on my laptop's screen?

Question

I have a Dell Inspiron, w/Windows XP pro, and whenever I would adjust the sound level or mute button, a bar indicator would appear on the screen. It has mysteriously vanished! I have looked in all the "help" and "indexs" for a way to restore this, but to no avail. I am sure it is an easy thing I am missing....I think there's a malfunction somewhere between the keyboard and my chair...
