[SOLVED] Volume buttons on an IBM laptop R51

jonesnd · 08-19-2007, 04:31 PM

Hi, I can't get the volume display on the laptop (IBM R51) to show on the screen when I use the volume buttons on the laptop. The buttons work fine in adjusting the volume but I get no display to show how loud it is ?

I wonder did you ever get a solution to the volume on your R51
I have the same problem after a virus attack

You need the HOTKEY driver which includes On Screen Display
