problems with volume control.....
« on: January 28, 2001, 05:43:00 AM »
My set of headphones doesent have a volume control on them and they plug directly into my sound card, my problem is that for some reason my computer will not remember the volume adjustments i set in the little speaker thing in the taksbar, every time I reboot it sets everything at almost full blast, is there any software out there that would allow me to map "volume up" and "volume down" to my keyboard so that I could adjust them while in a game or program,  I am getting sick of firing up aces high, hitting E to start engine and having my brains blown out my nostrils by my headphones.

P.S.  I am using SB LIVE Value.

Hi Wobbel--I have the same card, almost, the platinum. What I did was right click the speaker , lower left, and adjust the volume on the level out puts.

Hope this works.

Yea scream i did that but for some reason the setting wont stay, it creeps back up to full volume at some point, doesent even require reboot.

Thanks for input though

ComUSA has a cheap keyboard that has controls for stuff including volume.  It's put out by CompUSA and is a Multi-Media, think it cost $19.95 or so. Works great too
