Volume Bar

Hello,

Recently the green volume bar that pops up when you use the keyboard volumes controls has disappeared. How can I get them back?

It sounds like you need to download the hotkey drivers for your system. These drivers control all the TP onscreen visual cues, such as the sound bar and think light icon.

I installed the newest HotKey drivers, but it still does not work!

there is also a program called 'Thinkpad On Screen Display' and system interface drivers,, do you have both?
I am assuming you dont see the green display when you change your display brightness too.

If you don't see the green bars but the volume buttons work, use ThinkVantage System Update to find and install the Lenovo System Interface Driver. It should do the trick. Good luck!
