Have you tried: "On Screen Display utility for most Thinkpad laptops" Available from Hobbes: >http://hobbes.nmsu.edu/download/pub/os2/util/wps/tposd108.zip Long Description: Utility to display the current settings for several Thinkpad BIOS related settings like: - Speaker volume and muting with audible feedback - LCD brightness - Monitor selection VGA/LCD/DUAL Pops up a small dialog at the bottom/center of the screen with the relevant info any time one of the monitored values changes, usually due to the user operating a special Thinkpad key. F1 with dialog up gives help and usage information Includes sources and Openwatcom makefile I've been using it for quite a while. Volume control works well. Because ACPI does not support/allow use of Fn-F7 for switching the display between the LCD and a CRT, that part only displays what it believes to be the setting. Usually, it is not correct. Good luck! Carl
