on my laptop, when i would press the volume buttons, an indicator on the screen would come up showing me what level the sound was at. now it doesn't, does anyone else have this problem or know a solution for it???

BTW, i have a Dell Inspiron 600m, runs windows xp

If you have had the computer for a while it would be best to do a clean install if you have the time, just makes everything faster. I don't think dell gives you a real version of xp, w/o all the crap on it though. If you have a full xp version use it if not borrow one or pirate it. It might come with it though, my alienware did.

^Wheres a good place to get a pirated copy from? I lent my original XP disc out, and never got it back.

^bLaze · 11-07-2006, 01:48 AM

yeah i wanted to start fresh again. where can i get a pirated one? anyone got one they can send?

Frojoe · 11-07-2006, 01:51 AM

Bit Torrent would be fine. If you can borrow a CD that is easier though

Try this. I'm not sure if this will do the trick or not, but the problem is a driver. I know what you're talking about with the volume display. I have a desktop computer that I am using a Microsoft Multimedia Keyboard with and when I press the volume up and down on the keyboard, it displays in the bottom right corner of the screen...then slowly fades away.

This started appearing when I first installed the keyboard on the system, so I know it was the Microsoft keyboard driver that installed it for me. I'm guessing that it would be a driver of some sort for you, but the driver page for the 600m(here) doesn't list a keyboard driver. You might try the audio driver also...it couldn't hurt. If you still can't get it, try the Dell Notebook System Software under System and Configuration Utilities. That's a long shot, but it's my last guess.

Good luck.

i looked through all my cd's and the only one i could find that i thought would be right says "operating system" at the top, then a little under says:
"reinstallation cd
microsoft windows XP home edition
including service pack 1a"
