Certain Control Panel icons are missing after upgrading to Windows XP

If you upgrade an earlier version of Windows to XP, you may find that several icons are missing from Control Panel.
This is caused by a bug in Windows XP where certain registry settings left over from previous versions are misinterpreted.
Here's how to fix it:
- Run the Registry Editor (REGEDIT.EXE).
- Navigate to HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ Control Panel.
- Delete the Don't load key entirely, and close the Registry Editor.
- The change should take effect immediately.
