    Why the heck didn't Clevo thought using the audio DJ to control your favorite audio player was a clever idea? For me the audio DJ is pretty useless, but god knows i'd like to use these buttons to control itunes.

    Anyone know if it's possible? Driver thing maybe?

    Odd. The Audio DJ controls on my 5320 work perfectly in iTunes, Windows Media Player. I don't have any other players.

    Ah yeah? Mmmm Maybe i'll try to reinstall the AudioDJ drivers... Puzzling, as the Audio DJ works fine when the 5760 is off...

    *cries*. I want this working :( . Reinstalled the drivers - no luck. I have no other keyboard drivers installed (like Intellitype or logitech). Not sure where to look... The front row is completely disabled........

    Wait...


    Arrrrrrrrrrrrrrrgh!!!! It's disabled with the touchpad being disabled :eek: with the Fn-F1 toggle.

    Wow! Thanks for this bit of information! All this time I was wondering why sometimes the audio DJ volume buttons work, and sometimes they don't (forcing me to use fn+f5/6 or the windows mixer instead)....

    Mystery solved...

    WOW Thanks.
    I never realized that.

    I ALWAYS turn off the Touchpad when I am not at home as it screws up with my typing alot on my 5760.

    It does NOT say anything at all in the manual that FN+F1 will also turn off the Audio "DJ" Controls.

    Clevo should change this so the Touchpad and Audio DJ can be turned on and off independently and not by the same button.
    I can live without a touchpad but teh Audio DJ function ios cool :D
