New Windows 7 install 95%

#1 Post by stuartf » Mon Jan 03, 2011 10:10 pm

Install went fine with the upgraded 2 gb of memory. Apart from Outlook 2010 problems all is well (even hibernate and suspend work without a problem which was not working on previous XP install) except:

When I change the volume I do not get the on screen green bars (minor annoyance)
the Fn+F5 sequence does not shut the wireless off

Any hints? I have searched and installed many updates, both from lenovo and MS with no luck.

You need the Hotkey features driver.

Thanks DKB, installing that hotkeys software got me the Fn+F5 combo working; now all that seems to be missing is the on screen display when I change the volume when using the dedicated buttons on the keyboard.

You may need a graphics adapter driver that supports those features.
