somehow, 3820tg has no problem. i m using Winamp too. it works fine. the only problem is that the next and previous key will make Winamp skip a few songs. That's ok for me.
See if you try use my mmkeybd.cfg? You may want to back up the original file in C:\Program Files (x86)\Launch Manager first, then unzip the attachment and overwrite the file in that folder. No harm trying... Attached File(s)
MMKEYBD.zip ( 516bytes )
Number of downloads: 34 |

nice, finally im able to use the media key functions on winamp
by understanding the config on this, it shows that there are 2 functions, legacy and common hook. but by using this, and enabling the global hotkey on winamp, i noticed that there's no volume indicator when we hit FN+UP/DOWN, it adjusts the winamp volume instead, not the system volume and by closing winamp, the system volume won't be affected either » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « however, by using the codes below, all of the media keys are hooked on to winNT including the media keys (notice the part I put them on legacy). the ";;" is means putting the whole line as comment. after putting them as comment, i tried them and it works, including the volume indicator that would change the system volume instead of winamp only This is especially for those with the winamp searching for cd drive when using the media keys (just paste them to your existing MMKEYBD.cfg overwriting existing texts inside) p/s: you don't have to enable the normal global hotkey option in winamp, only enable multimedia key support would be sufficient enough, but, if not using the normal global key the play/pause function would only act as play button and no pause » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « Credits to cowithgun for redirecting me to that winamp thread This post has been edited by sarf2k4: Mar 26 2011, 03:31 PM |

LOL. most people had a lot of success if you install the driver this way:so i prefer something just download and install. no need any change. btw sign and unsigned what diff? dont know bout this sounds like nokia phone need to sign first then can install 1. remove all existing graphic driver 2. install Acer latest driver (by running the installer) 3. go to BIOS, change to Discrete graphic 4. install Catalyst 11.2 5. go to BIOS, change back to Switchable About signed and unsigned driver, 64-bit OS has enforcement that all driver must be Signed, otherwise, it wont load them (ya, something like handphone). The custom driver was create by an individual that is not signed by a valid CA, so, 64-bit OS may not load it. So, the custom installer will disable driver signing checking to make it work. It simply mean, all drivers are now allow. But if you dont mind and trust that driver, there is nothing to worry about.
