| | Re: OSD for vista? :( What you are looking for is part of the advanced keyboard drivers. If the keyboard manufacturer has nor updated the drivers for Vista I am afraid you will no longer have that function.

| | Re: OSD for vista? :( I have the same problem. You need drivers specifically written for your keyboard. -- Regards, Richard Urban Microsoft MVP Windows Shell/User (For email, remove the obvious from my address) Quote from George Ankner: If you knew as much as you think you know, You would realize that you don't know what you thought you knew!

| | Re: OSD for vista? :( So, what's the big deal with hovering the mouse cursor over the sound icon in the notification area if you want to see the volume number.
