windows volume control setting
techidave:
I am trying to set the wave volume for all users who log in to a computer. By default it is set to zero so there are certain programs that don't have any sound. The computers are XP Pro SP3 that log into a Windows server in a grade school setting. It seems after they log in and it is set, then it stays but I am trying to save the computer teacher a lot of time by setting it in advanced.
This particular computer uses the SoundMax Digital Audio software. I have also tried setting it in control panel but the results are the same. I have looked in to gpedit but cannot find any setting there either.
any ideas?
techidave:
Apparently some/one of the software we use changes the default setting to zero. I just logged into another computer that has no software installed on it and the wave setting is as high as it will go.
I am going to set up my default user and copy it to the other computer and see what happens. I will post back the result.
Would there be a registry setting that would accomplish the same thing???

mouser:
actually this is a fantastic idea for a coding snack, a tool that runs on windows startup and forces the volume and wav volume settings to a specific value.
lanux128:
if you want a certain level of volume to be set on start, try NirCmd. the following code will create a shortcut in the startup folder which will set the system volume to the max.
--- ---nircmd.exe cmdshortcutkey "~%folder.desktop%" "Max Volume" setsysvolume 65535
mouser:
