HP/Compaq :: Touching Volume Up/down
Feb 25, 2009
when I touch Volume, Bass, Treble during in-game sequence (For example: GTA IV, Saints Row 2), the game minimizes to the desktop and the audio(dialogue) keeps on playing. So when I go back to the game, it takes a second to catch up with the framerate but it doesn't freeze. Yay! But my initial question is that is there a way around this? So when I touch the volume in-game sequence it doesn't minimize to the desktop?
I used to adjust the volume in-game and it worked. So I don't know what's going on!

I have got a thinkpad x61 with win 7 pro x64. A few days ago I installed hotkeys drivers from Lenovo. On Screen Display problem: when I press volume up/down Button the volume decreases completely. To make louder or dim the volume I have to hold the buttons. All the other hotkeys functions work . why? what I have to do?

i've noticed now, and it's annoying that sometimes when i touch the trackpoint or touchpad LIGHTLY, like just right before.
i use it, it'll register it as a left click and i'll end up dragging things around instead of moving the cursor..
so now i try to plan and leave the cursor at an area of the screen/desktop where it won't select anything.. .
happens maybe 5% of the time, but since i use those pointing devices so much it's annoying. doesn't happen when i have a mouse though btw..

I own one Lenovo E430. By now he is running Windows7, fully patched and updated. My issue is related with ultra-high touching sensitivity of the TouchPad. The TouchPad can react even on cloth touch.
This is problem for me, because I use TrackPoint, I don't have external keyboard and during high utilization extra unwanted clicks lead to unpredicted events. So, my question is how can I disable the Touchpoint.

My xps15 l501x screen goes either gray / or stuck image on touching the lid or during start-up. I can fix the issue by pressing the back panel or by closing the lid multiple time
I would like to know if this is an display panel issue or the display cable issue?

I'm experiencing a problem with my G500s Touch, i am not touching the screen but it makes a lot of random inputs and appears contextual menu (like right click). It's really annoying, one of these days i'm going to throw this laptop through my apartment's window.
I already opened device manager and deleted all HID interfaces and reinstalled. Reinstalled Elan Drivers (i think maybe it is the problem, elan driver), i used windows restore 3 times and i still have the problem.
A Quick solution for this: Ctrl + Alt + Del, then Escape. And you will not have this problem in the next 1, 3, 5 or 10 minutes.

HP Pavilion dv6 - volume too low
Anyways I have the IDT Control Panel installed with all the drivers up to date but with the volume turned all the way up I can barely hear anything from the laptop speakers, if I plug in headphones they work fine but the speakers barely put out sound.
Model: HP DV6Z CTO
OS: Windows 7 Pro 64 bit (updated drivers from hp's site).
I tried the suggestion regarding installing realtek driver's but my laptop bsod'd and I haven't tried anything since (couldn't think of anything).
The green volume bar barely goes up when I do stuff such as watch video's online (doesen't even reach 1/4th of the way up) while the volume is turned all the way up.

I have a Dv7 not a dv7t so I did not know to make my own thread or post in the other thread.
ANYWAYS - My girlfriends dad got a computer very similar to mine and it looks identical besides the color. I know it is not the exact same because the index score is lower.
When he changes the volume on the touch part from the computer it shows a meter in the center of the that moves while he slides his finger across the volume.

Every time I change the volume on my notebook via keyboard shortcuts, a volume... "window" pops up and indicates how much i decrease or increase it. Problem is, that while I'm gaming or watching a movie, that indicator is always on top of any application i have opened, so it makes some games stutter, and if i accidentally click it, my game minimizes on the bar. Is there anyway to disable this feature on vista?

How do you make the volume slider
A. shut the heck up (no more clicking when adjusting the volume) and
B. I've heard you can get rid of the on screen visual adjustment of it, how would one do that?
I've also heard from two people that you can set areas of the touch pad to do things like right and left click (as a silent alternative to the buttons).

when I pop in a Blu-ray movie, I'm getting pretty anemic sound and I need to turn the volume all the way up to get it to a decent level. Even then, it's pretty weak.
However, when I'm playing a game (like WoW), the sound is big and full and I actually need to turn it down most of the time.
Why is the sound output so bad when watching BR discs? Anyone else experience this difference in volume and quality of sound? My DV7 was the same way with BR discs. Maybe there is a setting I'm missing to adjust this?

Why does the volume bar have to take main focus everytime I use it causing it to take me out of full screen games?
Speaking of the volume bar, turning off the touchpad makes it impossible to use any programs until the stupid picture telling you it's turned off goes away.
I have eyes and ears for a reason! I can hear the volume going up and down, and the light on the touchpad is enough to tell me it's off!
Is there anyway to keep the hotkeys but turn off the visual reminders? =.=;;

i just received this brand new and when i press the volume up and down quicklaunch buttons .. the volume does go up and down but there is no onscreen notification of this ... if i scroll mouse over to the bell on the taskbar i do see that the volume numbers did increase or decrese...so i know the buttons are working ... even when i press the mute button.. i see the icon show that it is muted...
should this tablet have an onscreen popup notifcation when u raise and lower the volume...?
i contacted HP and they told me to do a system restore... after i tried to update my quicklaunch application and it still had no effect...
i want to make sure something is wrong with my tablet before i perform this system recovery...

every time I change the volume it goes into the separate volume popup window and whatever else I'm doing gets minimized if it was fullscreened, it's really annoying. How do I turn this off? I've been told by a HP custom service guy to uninstall Quick Touch, but I can't even find it anywhere.
(are there any other things I can do to optimize this computer?)

I just bought a dv5t yesterday. A question regarding the dual headphones jack...
I have one jack connected to my headphones, and the other connected to my speaker system. I would like to control their volume independently (from the notebook itself).

On my HDX18, when I press the slider bar to adjust my volume, Microsoft Excel comes up. Same if I touch the speaker off button as well. The more I press the more Excel pages I open up.

Is there some way around this? I ended one of the process one time, I VolCtrl.exe * 32, and it made the onscreen display go away, but then I could no longer adjust the brightness (probably because the onscreen display is identical for both except for a light icon insteam of a volume icon)
With that process not running volume control still worked fine, but screen brightness changing went away, a price I can't afford to pay for that.

When I put my X220T in tablet mode, the screen moves just enough to move the pointing stick in the middle of the keyboard to cause the cursor to move. I can't rest my hand on the screen without causing the cursor to move all the way accross the screen.
Am I missing a driver that would disable the nub when the screen is turned over it, or is this a design oversight? I've got the latest BIOS.

if anyone has had the same problem as me with the HP HDX 16. Randomly, even as I am typing here, the volume bar (with treble, bass etc) will appear on screen and will increase/reduce very quickly as if im pushing down on the touch buttons, this stops me being able to type, sometimes crashing the computer.
At the same time, this fault also occurs for the wireless LAN button to the far right, which will randomly disable (turn red) as if i'd touched it, sometimes causing the desktop to crash but more importantly causing me to lose connection and have to reconnect on a frequent basis.
I've had the notebook for over 6 months, and while i did have this occur on very rare occasions, since a couple days ago it has increased to a point where it happens all the time, including after a restart. I have tried searching through google to see if the problem is known, and i have seen a similar account on a customer review website. I have used HP health check and followed the updates supplied including that for the touch smart buttons and a BIOS flash.

My nearly-new Acer One Netbook had fairly low volume from the speakers when new. Now it is barely audible. The headphone jack delivers full volume. Control panel and the on-screen indicator show full volume.

I don't think I'm losing my hearing, but it seems like 80% volume now is the same as 50% volume before on my MBP 15 after the 10.6.2 update. I checked my sound output and it is set to internal speakers, which I think is normal(?)
