Sounds like you will have to update the driver for the model notebook you have. If you have an older laptop and we do not have available drivers, when it ask you what to keep you select the first bullet which is files and applications.

In google when you search you will have to type suppor asus and your model number. There our support site will be available. Now go to the download tab and select windows 8 as your operating system. There you will find the drivers to make your sound button functional again.

If you have any questions or comments you can email me at [email protected] which I reside in the U.S

ASUS strives to meet and exceeds our customer expectations within our warranty policy.
