    Before I reinstalled the new sound driver. I could ajust volume by pressing FN + F8 and F9 without poping out of the games.
    After I installed the new sound driver. Every time when I press FN + F8 or FN + F9, it will pop out to the windows destop.
    I wonder is there any ways to set it back?

    And one more question, I know Starcraft relies on CPU hevily.
    Will the game speed in Starcraft 2 affect the FPS?
    It seems like if I set a higher game speed, I would get a lower FPS.

    Thanks.

    Not sure myself. For me it works with some games and not others, no idea why.
