Volume not working!

jackson81207 · 01-28-2009, 09:28 AM

I'll try to explain this as best as I can:

I deleted a whole bunch of programs and files the other day to clear somespcae up on my pc. I'm pretty sure I didn't delete anything media/sound related, yet out of nowhere my volume decided to stop working. I have no idea if i accidentally deleted something audio related, but i've been sifting through forums and other tech support and its not getting me anywhere; if anything, im losing my ******* mind!

According to the other forums i've been reading, I've done everything there is to do, yet there simply isn't any sound coming out of my damn speakers! Any suggestions?!?

-Thanks in advance for any info

It would help to know what you have done.

Check Volume control?
Check Device Manager?
Is you sound card the default audio device?

Stuff like that. A lot of times in this situation it just takes a re-install of audio drivers. Not sure if you have done this already as you haven't stated what you have done.

Oh yeah, and could you post your system specs? Make/model # or motherboard and other components if it is a custom build.

Thanks

I take it that you already tried codecs, correct?
