Problem with sound card

Mr. Tech · 05-02-2005, 02:54 AM

All of a sudden for no reason I can think of, the inbuilt speakers on my sisters computer stopped working. Earlier (a few hours before it stopepd working) the speakers were working fine. We did not do anything.

We have tried external speakers, headphones, everything but no sound. The only time I can hear anything is when I push certain haedphone hard against my ear. Even then I can barely hear anything.

it seems as though the sound has been turned way down so I can no longer hear it.

Come to think of it, it may of stopped working after a windows update. I'm running windows XP.

Any ideas?

Sinse you are working with winXP did you try to restart your computer at a previous state? Like yesterday afternoon. Just in case any virus or update created this problem?
