When I change my volume on my laptop I have no visual indicator showing how high or low my volume is. So basically Im shooting blind everytime I hit the volume buttons.

I have an HP, with Windows XP proffessional. Is there anyway I can get it so there is a graphic indicator of what my volume is at without just leaving the volume control window open?

Things get a little more complicated with laptops, because they may have dedicated volume control keys, or they may have key-combinations that perform the same function. The manufacturer of the keyboard software may, or may not, elect to include an on-screen display.

The only real advice I have is to check the control panel applets for both your keyboard and sound card. Look around for options that might control the on-screen display. There are so many different manufacturers that it's possible that some allow you some control, and perhaps default it off.

What's the brand of your laptop? That website says that some brands don't have volume indicators. You could probably download something for it in the company website though.
