Solution : Sometimes, when you use a high resolution such as 1600x1200, the image is shifted to left or
right on the screen. To correct this, first make sure that your external monitor supports the display mode
(the resolution and the refresh rate) that you have set. If it does not, set a display mode that the monitor
supports. If it does support the display mode you have set, go to the setup menu for the monitor itself
and adjust the settings there. Usually the external monitor has buttons for access to the setup menu. For
details, see the documentation that comes with the monitor.

• Problem : A volume or balance slider cannot be moved.
Solution : The slider might be grayed out. This means that its position is fixed by the hardware and
cannot be changed.
• Problem : The volume sliders do not stay in place when some audio applications are used.
Solution : It is normal for the sliders to change position when certain sound applications are used. The
applications are aware of the settings in the Volume Mixer window and are allowed to change the settings
themselves. An example is the Windows Media Player. Usually the application has sliders available to
control the sound from within the program.
• Problem : The balance slider cannot completely mute one channel.
Solution : The control is designed to compensate for minor differences in balance and does not
completely mute either channel.
• Problem : There is no volume control for MIDI sound in the Volume Mixer window.
Solution : Use the hardware volume control. This is because the built-in synthesizer software does
not support the control.
• Problem : The sound cannot be turned off even if you set the Master volume control at minimum.
