    Hi there!!

    Need a little help here...

    My display doesnt show anymore tha changes I make with Function keys, such as volume, subwoofer, and all the related functions in the F-Keys depicted in blue color. The functions do work, but I see no indications in the screen (like the green horizontal bar that appears in the bottom of the screen when you increase or decrease the volume...)

    I just did some "maintenance" with Ad-Aware and Hi-Jack This, Im almost sure I erased something related with this (Im thinking a memory-resident little program that enables this feature...but I have no idea wich one it is...)

    I appreciate the help!!
    Thanx!
    Alex

    This is related to some software the Acer installs into the system. If you deleted something it might be difficult to get it back from the Acer CD (Images, not stand-alone drivers). You can try this like from the top of the Acer section. It has a link to the Acer Europe FTP site that contains pretty much all the drivers for Acer notebooks.

    Check to see if they may have the drivers/software you need.
