The volume control bar appearing in the middle of the screen.

As the title suggests, the volume control is popping up in the middle of my screen.

http://img198.imageshack.us/img198/130/middleofscreen.jpg

Basically, as shown.


How can I bring it back up the taskbar?

I had the same problem after an update of the driver, but he could not figure out until I saw your comment. I use 3 monitors, and I only had this issue when more than one is connected. but of course, disabeling the desktopmanager in the Catalyst Control Panel solved the problem!

Thank you!

  • Abnormal activity - a volume control bar appears in the upper-left

    I installed Windows 8 PRO (64-bit), on my Dell laptop (model Inspiron-5520) 05/11/2012.
    For the last 15 days or more, I'm observing some abnormal activity which I do not know if it is due to a virus, malware or some drivers / registry corruption.
    Whenever I open a Windows session (e.g. after reboot or out of the MODE STANDBY), a volume control bar appears in the upper-left corner & it keeps inhibition - reactivate up until I got a hit. This volume control bar is similar to that seen after that now both pressed keys (Fn & Speaker-Mute).
    I took the question to Kaspersky Antivirus, but still it is not fixed. I scanned the whole system of Rescue CD (bootable) of Kaspersky and Avira antivirus also scanned the whole system using Microsoft msert.exe service. But this virus as activity does not stop.
    I have observed that if the WINDOWS AUDIO service is stopped through msconfig, this virus as activity stops. But then speakers & microphone stop working.
    After crossing research on various Web sites on the internet, I found a site that helped me to fix the registry of the Windows Audio service. And it has worked very well; but it lasted only 2-3 reboots. Then after that, it is indeed.

    I doubt it's apparent virus but... it's very probably an audio driver\program any that is defective...

    Look in the tab Services from msconfig and hide all Microsoft Services and see what remains...

    You can also view the Startup tab of the the Task Manager for a suspect...

    It could be something as simple as a pilot action which was only supposed to run once, but loads with boot every time by a malfunctioning...

  • Control bar of the unknown Volume suddenly appearing on desktop Dual-Boot computers.

    Original title: 'Mystery' Volume Control Bar sudden appearance on desktop Dual-Boot computers.

    Good day, community:

    I'll do my best to make the question as concise as possible.  This is a real new for me.

    I dual-boot Windows 7 Pro & Windows 8.1 Pro on a 64-bit computer.  Each operating system is on another HDD (mechanical).  Yesterday, a control Volume unsourced bar began to appear on each of the separate workstations.  On the DT of Win7, this bar is displayed in the lower right region and hovers over the SysTray speaker icon.  On the DT 8.1 Win, it appears in the box to the upper left, similar to where the real system volume control appears when it is called.  Each of these 'mystery ' control bars will appear - and then disappear for a period of time.  Each control bar is flooded-out for the volume level of 100% and stays there.  Right click shows no drop-down menu to display the properties.  The control rods cannot be manipulated to adjust the volume levels.  When I view the actual systems Volume mixer and attempt to manipulate the volume level bar will adjust briefly but then floods automatically save the level of 100%.  I ran my anti-virus - full system scan - all readers - update Avast for free - and malware kit & root scan - MalwareBytes - but nothing does.

    The following may provide a clue.  The last program I have installed under the two O/S has been steam 'The Orange Box'. All components have been updated.  I disabled the Steam Client to bootloader program in each operating system using msconfig/startup and restarted.  The 'mystery ' Volume control bar continues to appear in the same areas described above.  I intend to describe the same question on the steam Forum community.  Thank you all for your time.  Any help/suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

    Without warning, that controls Volume slide bar appears on my screen fluctuating levels as I was changing the volume/bass/treble level. This stops / blocks everything I do on the laptop such as typing, internet, turn on my connection 'Wireless', turns on volume mixers (I keep off) and stops my typing.

    Hello

    Unfortunately there is no firmware update for the capacitive on your particular model - instead, try the following.

    First of all, download and reinstall the utility to control the tone of HP on the following link.

    http://ftp.HP.com/pub/SoftPaq/sp45501-46000/sp45617.exe

    When you are finished, stop the laptop, unplug the AC adapter and then remove the battery.  Press and hold the Power button for 30 seconds.  Reinsert the battery and plug in the AC adapter.

    Robinet tap away at the key esc that you start the computer to launch the Start Menu, and then select f10 to open the bios menu.  Press f5 to load the default values (sometimes it's f9, but the menu below indicates the correct key), use the arrow keys to select 'Yes' and press ENTER.  Press f10 to save the setting and still use the arrow keys to select 'Yes' and press on enter.

    This makes a difference in the question?

  • Creating a bar of the Volume control for multiple audio files

    I'm pretty new to Flash and developing a project with a series of images containing unique video clips. Each of these frameworks are accessible via a menu based all chapter in being visible straight like a regular movie. I just added the audio for each 'chapter' / framework, all of which are unique from each other. I'm having a problem with the creation of a volume control bar that affects all the sound elements throughout all the images in the control bar unique on the General interface/skin that these chapters are working on. (With the help of Flash 8)

    I developed a sliding control bar, that works, but does not affect the volume, somehow. Is there something wrong with the coding that I use? (The control bar consists of a button nested in a clip and the action is applied to the mc. The bar/line to follow is 60px banner for a long time and control is to move horizontally while the increase reflects the increase in the volume. The original code was for a 100px line leave a tutorial from macromedia that I adjusted to be 60px banner) advice on best practices for the creation of a volume control bar would be greatly appreciated! (I currently have all of my audio files on separate layers, should I be placing these in a mc rather than just having them on the main timeline?) Thank you!!!

    Answering my own question...

    Each individual swf has the code...

    var my_sound:Sound = new Sound();
    my_sound.loadSound ("someSound.mp3", true);
    my_sound.setVolume (50);

    Code on the shell/main drag...

    OBJECT SOUND
    var sound: Sound = new Sound;
    soundtrack.setVolume (50);
    END OF THE SOUND OBJECT

    GLOBAL VOLUME CONTROL
    var nVolCheck:Number;
    volSlider.volBall.onPress = function (): Void {}
    this.startDrag (false, 0, 0, 0, 75);
    nVolCheck = setInterval (updateVolume, 150);
    };
    volSlider.volBall.onRelease = function (): Void {}
    this.stopDrag ();
    clearInterval (nVolCheck);
    };
    function updateVolume (): Void {}
    var flight: Number = (volSlider.volBall._x) * 2;
    soundtrack.setVolume (flight);
    };
    END OF THE GLOBAL VOLUME CONTROL

    My bar is 75 pixels in width and volume is being increased from 1.5 to peak.

  • The volume control has mind of its own

    I have a HP1428 DV7 ca, Win 7 Home Prem 64 bit running. Recently my volume control seems to have achieved a clean mind. At first I thought it was related to HP MediaSmart, so I removed it. It stopped at the volume control bar to constantly and irregularly flashing on the screen. However, when I open the mixing table under windows I see that it is always very strange, the volume increases in fits and starts. None of the volume controls at the top of the keyboard do not work. The MediaSmart button stays on and the mute button is not the drawer of the volume control does not work either. I thought that removing MediaSmart and put it back in place, it should correct the problem, he didn't.

    Thank you.

    Hello

    It may be a hardware problem with the band capacitive itself, but about the audio, try the following.

    Download IDT Audio Installer on the link below and save it in your downloads folder.

    http://ftp.HP.com/pub/SoftPaq/sp45001-45500/sp45073.exe

    One time finished, open windows control panel, open Device Manager and open sound, video and game controllers.  Right click on the IDT device and select uninstall - also, you should get a command prompt to delete the current driver, check the box to enable this and then proceed to uninstall.

    When finished, restart the computer and let Windows load completely.  Open your download folder, right-click on the IDT Installer and select "Run as Administrator" to launch the installation.  Once this done, do a right-click the speaker icon in the taskbar and select playback devices.  'Speakers and headphones' left click once to highlight, and then click the Set Default button - check if you now audio.

    The MediaSmart you make reference to the application's HP MediaSmart SmartMenu, which can be downloaded and installed from the link below - you must have at least a MediaSmart application installed before installing SmartMenu.

  • How can I get rid of the black bar that appears in the middle of the screen every time I have set the basic like the volume control features, or brightness levels?

    Hi, can someone help me with a really annoying (and I'm sure a simple to fix) problem?  I don't know if it's related to Windows 7 or if it's just my laptop plays up.  I recently upgraded to Windows 7 from Visa and whenever I have increase/decrease noise, brightness, etc (no matter if I do this using the key on the keyboard or via the control panel), a black bar appears in the middle of the display, indicating the levels that I'm reaching with the adjustments.  It's useful... except it does not disappear after that I'm done.  The bar stays there for all the time that I am connected and text blocks, images on the screen that I can't minimize or even move it out of the road.

    Hi Mkum

    The bar you describe look like this image?

    If so, this is part of the HP software that is installed on the computer.

    Here is a link to the HP support forum where this utility is supported.
