External Volume Control

#1 Post by coookiemonsta04 » Sun Jan 03, 2010 9:35 pm

Hello!

I just got Windows 7 on my T60 and the external volume controls( 3 buttons near keyboard) are not working.

Does anyone know how to fix this issue?

Thank you!

Howdy neighbor!

Install and run System Update. This will install any drivers that may be missing from your new build.

Okay, I assume they were working fine before you installed Windows 7?

If the buttons worked before, I would think it would have to be a driver issue, or perhaps a setting in the Control Panel. I have no experience with 7, so I'm out. :?
