Hotkeys not working

Eric the Red · Sep 12, 2004, 06:27 PM

I just reformated my hard drive nad installed the Omega Drivers for my 9800 pro. Everything is working fine, except that I have to keep reloading my color profile after every program I run, and when I reboot. Also, the hotkeys to modify my color profile while running programs are not working either.
Many may not think this is a very big deal, but my monitor is about 8 years old and it has gotten pretty dark in the last year or so. The default settings make my screen VERY dark and hard to see. I have to use the video drivers color settings to really turn up the gamma (to around 3.20) in order for me to be able to see. Most games internal gamma controls will not go anywhere near high enough for me to be able to see. Therefore I need to use the drivers hotkeys.
Yes the disable hotkeys box is not checked.
Can't understand why they'r enot working anymore. Never had a problem before my reformat.

So nobody out there has ever had this happen or knows how to fix it...

Greetings Eric and Welcome to DH.

Unfortunately, I've never used the color profiles or encountered this problem. Have you tried the Catalyst 4.9s instead of Omegas?

I lost Hotkeys (well the were intermittant before) with both 4.8 and 4.9. I reallu need them in my games.
