Just curious if anyone has gotten an OSD for the volume in Vista? I have one by default on XP MCE 2005 and I'd like to get one like that for Vista, but haven't seen anything. Can anyone help me out with this? Thanks.

Get 3RVX

Best Volume OSD so far.

Edit: Forget what I said, stupid Vista make it not compatible and making it running in XP compatibility don't work anymore since some update.

Sorry.

Thanks for the replies. I could've sworn I actually saw it work at one point during the Beta period, but that was a while ago. As much as I'd like to get a G15 keyboard though (I actually really do want one), I'm not ready to drop the cash on it yet lol.

That's the one I use for my laptop. Works perfectly on Windows XP, haven't tested it on Vista. It adds a couple more things, like dimming the display, but those only work on the original model. Give it a try, and tell me what you think.

I tried, don't work under vista :(

Like this better than the green osd I get, but I can't seem to rid myself of it I have a G-15 and a G5, but Setpoint isn't installed(problems with the dpi switcher). I changed the registry key to disable it, but it's still there.

look up microsoft's intellitype software for vista. it has an osd for the keyboard.

in fact, here it is: http://download.microsoft.com/download/9/3...57/ITP64Eng.exe

Thanks, Intellitype Pro perfectly works with my Logitech Media Keyboard Elite : volume OSD, all shortcuts and zoom :) (itype.exe works in background and takes 832 KB in RAM)

A note to those with X-Fi cards the 3VRX program goes nuts when you switch modes(i.e from entertainment to game) the volume spasms from 0 to 100 over and over again until you kill the process so I simply stopped using it. I doubt my G-15 would work well with the Microsoft KB software and anyways I removed the green osd via a registry change so it's gone I can use the KB lcd to tell how loud it is.

To be honest, I had never had to use windows mixer much, until I got 5.1 speakers and needed to control each speaker. Since then I use <snipped> all the time, and for gaming too. It supports Vista with the OSD feature. I switch from one sound configuration to another by pressing a combination of keys or by clicking a mouse button. It is a very simple, convenient and truly powerful program.

    • I like mesh chairs like this, but not being able to lock in the back would make it not work for me. Also, I don't like arm rests at all. Can you not install them and the chair still work? Any recommendations on alternative chairs?
    • As before, my notes are in your quoted section. To be clear, you started posting racist, fascist nonsense. And I always challenge lies and the liars that peddle them. Why? Because the truth matters.
    • Deal for those who want 1900 size electronics in their house? with 2026/7 hardware mhm.. not nice
    • Cheap labour, the same as the U.K. China pays their people pittance.
    • Those people that come over here on boats are already in a safe country, if they want to come over here then do so correctly though the right channels. I was born in the U.K, my family that came over here came so via the proper means. My partner came here via the correct channels, she also became a British citizen, she knows more about this country than most of them that was born here, including myself, she worked hard to do what she does. She will stick up for this country and have done a few times, when people from her own part of world have put the U.K down. We are not going to agree, all I said to start with is that maybe Trump has the right idea with this America first thing and maybe we should start doing the same. Maybe not as drastic as what he is doing, but we do need to sort this country out, we need to sort out tech instead of relying on the U.S and others. Again you have not shown why you are so annoyed that we have left the E.U and this is what it is all about? If you don't live in the U.K and live in the E.U are you annoyed that we left your little club? If you live in the U.K and is pro-E.U, then fair enough then I can see how it annoys you. Are you one of these people who lives in the U.K and have a holiday chalet in the E.U and can now only stay there for so long? If so, then that is bad luck. As I have posted before, I have no problem with people coming here to work, as long as they do if via the proper channels. We are out of the E.U, people voted out, and maybe if more people had voted instead of sitting on their backsides the results would have been different. But they like the E.U and our government thought no we would not vote to leave. How wrong they were, surprised me. I expected to wake up in the morning and hear on the radio that we voted to stay. As I said, we are out and have been for 10 years, we are not going to go back in anytime soon if we ever do, so we all need to make the best of how things are. Anyway, this is supposed to be a tech site.
