    I have just reinstalled Vista and for some bizarre reason my +/- Volume keys aren't working.

    Any ideas please?

    other than suggesting that you update the drivers for your sound device there is not much else i can think of...

    REALTEK DRIVER DOWNLOAD PAGE

    i know some acer models have had sound issues solved by updating the BIOS

    For some strange reason the sound or buttons do not always work. If I restart it solves the problem. If I right click on the speaker on the toolbar that says Realtek High Definition Audio and try to open, nothing happens...

    Any ideas please?
