Hi, okay, searched and searched and I can't find this anywhere.
I have just installed litestep, done the config files so everything is how I like it (using the default theme, still, but I've used Litestep before and this happened with all themes), so, anyway, there's this problem which is REALLY annoying me. When I try and change the volume via the volume control in the system tray, the volume control crashes and quits... thats all there is to it, unless I go to the control panel I have no way of changing the volume, and I need to change volume ALOT (don't want to go tone deaf...).
There's more to it though, I have an Audigy 2 sound card, and it installs its very own special volume control, it looks a little fancier, and it shows the percentage you have it at (handy), also when you double click it you go into the sound card's control panel.
So, ANYWAY, once the volume control crashes, I can put the original system one back in via the control panel (selecting it to not appear in the system tray, apply, selecting it to appear again) and I get the original volume control back, which doesn't crash.
So, I was just wondering. Can someone help me please? Is this a known problem? ALSO, if there is no way to fix it, does anyone know if there is a way to stop creative's special volume control from being loaded instead of the original window's one at startup?
Any help most appreciated :) .
