only been using comp since december so don't know very much
got new comp 5 weeks ago was set up and running ok
been away so turned everything off in the correct order but now no sound
the media player shows its playing but nothing comes out
i have checked all the plugs and all the symbols show that the volume is up and the mute is off so i'm out of ideas
any suggestions please
First thing i would do is check the driver hasnt dropped out ...
Put your computer disk in and reinstall the sound driver,

Modern computers do not always have seperate driver disks. If you are new to the world of computers you may not know which driver to install anyway as sound is often just an integrated chip on the main motherboard.
It may be helpful to answer the questions below before proceeding.
What type of computer do you have.....desktop or laptop?
What opperating system is running XP or Vista or Other?
You say you have been away....has anyone had access to your machine while you were absent?
Are the speakers on and plugged in the right hole?
thanks for all your suggestions
i have a guy coming tomorow fingers crossed to have a look
i'll let you know what i've done wrong knowing my luck it'll be something really silly ::)
cheers teena
hi teena, have you sorted your sound problems yet
Had my boys have a look for me and the speaker lead was loose in the socket
been put in and the speakers on the comp seem to be ok ;D
??? cant get the external speakers to work -- may need new ones but at least i have some noise now
thank you for all your help teena
