    Low volume

    Hi,
    I'm running vista home premium on a hp slimline. I have the latest Realtek hi-def audio driver installed, but still my volume is sadly low! Anyone know how I can fix this? All help appreciated.

    click on the speaker icon in notification area, then click mixer.
    Do you get a box open with all your sound volume settings here?

    Click on the volume icon in the lower right corner. Click mixer and pull the thing up to where you want it to be. The volume is back to normal.
