When invoking the assigned keystrokes the audio states it's doing the assigned task, but in reality ain't a damn thing happenin! LOL LOL So in short, with my testing anyways, if you want to hear your assigned keystrokes increase / decrease percentages announced audibly by JAWS, that's exactly what you'll get, audible announcements, but the volume doesn't change for either system sounds or JAWS volume.

Success on your directions Mike VIA Richards' original posting. I knew the command for a number of years how to bring up the volume control, how ever I was not aware of the switches or arguments after the command that obviously are available. Since I use multiple sound cards, 3 on this system to be exact it brought them up and I could tab around to them quite easily. -Original Message- From: Mike B.
