Adjusting speaker volume
Your HP TouchSmart PC has several ways to adjust the speaker volume. You can use the volume controls on
the side of the computer or the Microsoft Volume icon on the taskbar; or, if you are using digital speakers,
you can also adjust the volume by using SoundMAX.
1 Use the Volume buttons on the right side of the computer.
2 Use the Microsoft Volume icon on the taskbar:
a Press and hold (or with the mouse, right-click) the Volume icon, and then select Open
Volume Mixer. The Volume Mixer settings window opens.
b To adjust the volume for HP TouchSmart programs (Notes, Music, and Video), be sure to adjust
both the speaker volume, and the HP TouchSmart program volume. Scroll to the right in the
Applications area to see them all.
c When you are satisfied with the sound level, tap the Close button (the X in the upper-right corner)
to close this window.
3 If you have digital speakers, you can also use SoundMAX to adjust the volume and perform sound
balance testing:
a Tap the SoundMAX icon on the taskbar.
b Adjust the slider for the speaker setup that you have.
NOTE: You can also adjust the volume for the built-in microphone array in this window.
