Greetings. I've installed XBMC 11.0 on an old Dell Inspiron 1501 laptop that is running Windows 7. Everything is working great except for one annoying thing. When I load the software, the volume bar appears in the upper right hand corner and never goes away. I started playing around and this is what I noticed.
-The volume bar constantly displays because the volume is constantly rising. If I hold down the minus (-) key, the volume will drop down, but it will slowly rise again little by little taking about 30 seconds to get back to full volume.
- I ran a keyboard program to see if any keys were stuck. Nope.
- I tried on Windows XP Pro and Windows 7. Same result on both.
- I ran Geexbox from a USB key and everything worked great, but there is not standby or hibernate functionality
- I tried XBMCbuntu and the software crawled to the point where it was unresponsive...but no volume bar.
I would like to run the software using Windows, but this volume bar is driving me nuts. Does anyone have any suggestions on how to correct this error?
