This is the keyboard.

The knob allows you to control the volume. There is no on-screen display when you change the volume, so you basically have to guess what it is set at, unless you already have the volume adjust window open. The problem is that the keyboard doesn't use VolumeUp/Down. I tried Skan's ScanCode finder and it gave me nothing.

Does anyone know what this keyboard uses to send the message because I need to hook into that to use one of the many volume display scripts people have posted.

That knob is continuous, iirc. It likely sends some non-key message when it is turned. You can try the amazing Micha's HID support dll.

Or just troll the system volume :P

According to this it's a joystick device, but I tried the joystick test script and got nothing. I'm on 2k so can't use Micha's dll. Annoyingly, turning the volume down doesn't work on my computer, only volume up.

also, for anybody out there using a standard DELL multimedia keyboard (such as SK-8135 ), it might be helpful to note that the volume wheel uses (lParam>>16)=4106 for volume up and (lParam>>16)=4105 for volume down
