Hi Brad, Your best bet would probably be looking for a third-party volume utility, or considering a different keyboard. If you are using a wired keyboard, Microsoft has a nice one that has volume control keys just above the function keys. It is a, "Comfort Curve" keyboard, and sells for about $20.

Thanks yep I see that too. What I'm looking for is something to quickly mute or turn down volume when the phone rings or the like without having to dig deep in a key sequence :). Thanks for the input though, that is first base if nothing else.
