volume, brightness, on screen

After sending my laptop not be repaired, I assume that the settings have been changed. before, when you use the keys on the top of the keyboard (volume, screen brightness, battery, play, pause) the appropriate meter appears on the screen. is it possible to turn these levels of return screen visuals?

Hello

These media keys are specific to the laptop, they are not controlled by the operating system. They need this installed software support for these functions. This must be obtained from the manufacturer, usually available for download. Good luck, Rick Rogers, aka "Crazy" - Microsoft MVP http://mvp.support.microsoft.com Windows help - www.rickrogers.org

    Hi, as the title suggests, I want to remove the displays on-screen volume/brightness/capslock/numlock on my laptop

    Short story about what happened from my side, I got my laptop 3 years ago and the display screens were not there, until I reformatted my laptop a few months ago to windows 7 Professional (a win7 Ultimate) and the screen came with it, now I'm on windows 10 and they are still there

    Thanks for the help

    I have never seen or met.

    I've seen similar, as in games or overlays of user interface overlays. You have installed a program to show that?  Check in your "hidden icons", down to your left. Y at - it an icon which shows, if so can "out you"?  Is it in the Control Panel, all programs that say "overlay" or something?

    The last thing that I can say, go to the Task Manager and go to the Startup tab. Is there something in there that can refer to a display on?

    If none of them are successful, I will continue to look more deeply into it.

  • Brightness of screen/missing volume controllers

    Hey :)

    I recently reinstalled my OS (Vista Home Basic) on my Inspiron 1520, which means get all of the latest drivers from the Dell website. However, I have not been able to find one that displays a scale visible on the screen when you adjust the brightness of your screen or volume. It's REALLY annoying because it means that the volume tends to just shoot vertically because I can't tell how fast it is changing.

    Not one urgent request, but if someone could point me in the direction where I could download this piece of software I would appreciate it. :)

    Download Dell Quickset from the category of Applications on the Inspiron 1520 downloads page. After installation, he looks on the taskbar on the Quickset icon. It is in the form of a Q that is blue with a yellow tail coming out there. Click the icon and uncheck the 'disable counters of volume/brightness on the screen.' (On some versions you must right-click it.)

    Main function of quick setting is to start the wizard of energy management; However, by clicking on the icon allows you to enable or disable keys Fn brightness screen and volume, and it is necessary Media direct function.

    2: click the icon and uncheck the 'disable on screen volume meter.' (On some versions you must right-click it.)

    3: If the icon is missing under start programs and see if you have the Dell Quickset program. Follow the arrow to the word "Quickset" and click on it once and the 'Q' icon should appear on the taskbar.

    4: If you do not have quick setting program you can download it from the website of the computer manufacturer (dell).

    I use a Dell Inspiron 1720 with windows vista and when I use the external sound keys to change the volume or activate it power, there is no popup or any symbol on the dash board to tell me what level my volume is or if it is enabled or disabled. I am obliged to judge everything by ear that my sound level is completely enter the control panel and open the volume tab, I don't want to do.

  • Windows 8.1 lost the capacity of the volume, brightness keyboard and not let me download my Norton software.

    Original title: windows 8.1

    upgraded to 8.1 from 8 on a new Toshiba laptop purchased in may 2013.

    with 8.1 lost the capacity of the volume, brightness keyboard and not let me download my Norton software.
    No matter what is said, Adobe flash does NOT work in windows 8 and won't let me not download it from adobe.
    summer on the phone with technical support both windows and Toshiba, each fingers towards each other, saying that it will take a few months to coordinate the software updates.
    updates on this?

    8.1 is a beta and has a lot OF known issues under development and lot of unknown problems that have not yet been discovered.  It should be downloaded only by those who are comfortable, dealing with the problems of a trial version of the software.

    Lost the brightness controls and volume: do you need a driver. Your computer manufacturer may not have built their hardware drivers for Windows 8.1 control again.  They are not forced to do it to the beta-test system, so "use at your own risk.

    "Unable to download Norton".  What is the error you get?  Is this a problem with the download from the Norton site, or the installation process it?

    "Adobe Flash does not work".  Yes it does, it is integrated and you don't need to install it.  Just go to any Web site that uses flash and it will take care of itself.

    "Toshiba and Microsoft Point fingers"  Toshiba is not necessary to press the test system for windows 8.1, and Microsoft provides no support for the test software.  That is why they you warned that the 8.1 has many known and unknown problems and warned against install unless you like to manipulate and test out these problems.

    Looks like you need back to Windows 8 and wait for the final version.

    My HP pavilion laptop bar levels appears. There is a key for the adjustment of the brightness level and volume display. for example when increase us the level of vol., bars displayed on the screen. but randomly the level bar appears. my keys do not work correctly.

    Hey Sam,

    We display screen brightness and volume is a function of a device that is not a part of Windows. HP may have (for example HP Quicktouch) software that controls the on-screen visuals and sounds.  So it would be nice if you could in touch with HP about this.

    You try to install the most recent drivers based on model number laptop from HP Web site to ensure that it is not a driver problem.
