On-Screen Display for windows 7 for volume??

Hi im new here just wanted to say hi to every one on the forum

i have a problem i brought a laptop with windows 7 on it and it had some type of software to show it show volume levels on the screen (OSD) i reinstalled windows because i wanted the x64 verison of windows so i could use all 4gb of my ram, i looked around the only software i found was QuickTouch and there is the version out for windows 7, does any one know what the softwares call preinstalled on the dv6 ? thanks

 

Hit up the HP website.

 

i had a look on there but there no software listed

 

Pretty sure that this on screen volume is built in to the quick touch software.. It does NOT come installed with Win7, and is a add on from HP.
Download, and instill, and you should be good to go.

hi i installed the newest quicktouch software 1.00 D2 but im still not getting the On Screen Display coming up any other ideas?

 

3RVX is a great alternative for a OSD for volume.

 

i found this does this mean it wont work on x64?

Second this. I use it, it uses about 5MB of ram, not bad for our modern systems with all the RAM to go around. I find it works better than HP's stuff. If you've installed HP's stuff make sure to remove it so it doesn't conflict with 3RVX's sounds.

 

I also use 3RVX. Love the win+mouse scroll up and down for volume changes.

 

Another Alternative is Microsoft's keyboard driver. It has a nice OSD that works with the quicktouch volume keys. I use it an all my HP notebooks. Doesn't interfere with games like HP's OSD can and uses a small footprint of 500MB-1.5MB. Pops up when you change volume or mute/unmute.

Select Keyboard, then select Digital Media keyboard 3000, then your OS version and language. Download and install.

Doesn't interfere with your keyboard controls or external keyboards.

Been using this for 2 years without issue.

 

Reinstall HP Quick Launch Buttons. You might as well need to reinstall Media Smart software to get it work.. not sure, but give it a go.

 

i dont think i will work on x64 windows so im just using 3RVX and its not to bad the ice theme goes good with windows 7
