ok, here you go Tracy. Follow the steps below, and it should work just fine for you. 1. open winamp, and do a ctrl P for preferences. 2. down arrow to the pluggins section, and find the output pluggins branch. 3. Tab into the list view, and make sure the wave out pluggin is selected(down arrow, and then up arrow to make sure it is selected properly!) Tab to the configure button, and tap your space bar. 4. Tab through this dialogue box, and you will come to some volume control check boxes. The alt setting mode check box is the one you want to make sure is checked. Don't change any other settings, just the alt setting mode. 5. tab to the ok button, tap your space bar, and then shift tab to the close button, and then tap the space bar again. Start a song, and then try adjusting your volume. It should, by all rights, adjust just the winamp volume, and leave the system volume completely alone! Good luck!
