    Hi fellas, when I touch Volume, Bass, Treble during in-game sequence (For example: GTA IV, Saints Row 2), the game minimizes to the desktop and the audio(dialogue) keeps on playing. So when I go back to the game, it takes a second to catch up with the framerate but it doesn't freeze. Yay! But my initial question is that is there a way around this? So when I touch the volume in-game sequence it doesn't minimize to the desktop?

    ps. I used to adjust the volume in-game and it worked. So I don't know what's going on!

    Please help! Thanks in advance,
    D3158

    you have an option to disable on screen notifications in HP Quicklaunch. You lose visual cues but also the annoying minimize.
