SYMPTOMS
========

When you use the Multimedia tool in Control Panel, the Playback and Recording
volume controls and the Show Volume Control check box may be unavailable.

CAUSE

3.1 drivers for the CrystalWare sound card are not completely compatible with
the Windows 95 API set.

RESOLUTION

To adjust the playback and recording sound levels, use the Volume Control tool
(Sndvol32.exe) included with Windows 95. To enable the Show Volume Control check
box, contact the sound card manufacturer about obtaining updated drivers that
correct the problem.
