Disabling/Retasking Volume Side Buttons
You can put an XML file that follows all the requirements listed below to disable or
re-task the volume buttons on the side of an HP TouchSmart 9100:
File name: HPConfiguration.xml
File path:
1. Windows Vista® and Windows 7®: %ProgramData%
2. Windows XP®: %ALLUSERSPROFILE%\Application Data
XML schema: HPSystemConfiguration.xsd version 1.0 (Please see section HP
System Configuration Schema)
A system reboot is required for a new or modified configuration xml file to take
effect.
Any volume side button not declared in the configuration file will take its default
behavior.
You can delete HPConfiguration.xml and reboot the system so the volume side
buttons return to their factory default behavior.
The configuration file allows you to enable or disable the auto-repeat
functionality of the volume side buttons, and also to specify the auto-repeat
interval. The auto-repeat functionality is to the ability of the system to simulate a
button press every so often when the button is pressed and held continuously.
Please see the XML schema for more details about auto-repeat
disabling/enabling.
Note
This feature only works if the unit has the following
prerequisites:
Buttons & OSD control application gen3 must be
installed (can be checked in Control Panel > Programs
> Programs and Features).
The latest ACPI driver and device drivers for HP
TouchSmart 9100 must be installed.
