You have to pull the rotary knob off, and there's a little 
potentiometer under there that you can twist with a small screwdriver.

Warning:  The rotary knob is on there *really* tight... At least, 
mine was.  It was actually connected so tightly that I almost ripped 
a part off of the mainboard (luckily it held); I recommend using very 
STEADY force (rather than jerking), and using some sort of non-
metallic vice grip to hold the knob (so that you don't scratch it 
up)... Someone on here recommended using a rubber band to make a 
grip.  I did that but then had to use a large wrench to pull with 
because my knob was so tight.  Maybe yours won't be as bad.


Good luck!
