You never know. Personally, that's the only feature I miss when I disabled all the buttons on this keyboard so the new one will only have to have a volume button at least. |

| 92594 | 2002-10-25 05:10:00 | I use Win 98 and created a keyboard shortcut to volume controls . I chose to use Ctr+Shift+V . That brings up the volume controls by using keystrokes, but I then use the mouse to move the sliders as it is quicker . For mouseless use you can control the slider controls by using the Tab key and the up or down arrow keys but it is not quick . (use shift tab for reverse selecting) That method does not show one volume box only though, like the one you get when you left click on the speaker icon by the clock . It shows the lot, according to your settings for what is to appear when you right click on the speaker icon to open volume controls . If you use Win Media Player, the F9 and F10 keys control the sound volume there, but once again it is not quicker . Cheers, exLL |
