    Ok so I look at my computers volume and it is constantly shifting up and down in small incriments.

    I try to adjust the volume with the touch sensitive control but it does not feel responsive.... it moves it but only if I press hard.

    Is this a driver issue? If so how would I fix this?

    Can't you just try to do a restore? Plus dude no offence but if you playing with the settings sometimes there is a possibility of stuffing things up.

    If this DV5T 1000 CTO try reinstall your drivers if restore won't help.

    drivers/software is not bloatware...

    Try pressing the stop button. And can you tell us when this occurred?

    today , i just got my comptuer today

    it was working earlier... not well but working

    basically it never worked well as a slider but id just press on the + or -

    i reinstalled the software, it didnt fix it

    but now the volume is just bouncing around, and the controll is just terrible

    i cant even press + and - to edit it anymore, has no effect, and sliding barely does anything
