I turned on my computer today and it starts up and runs fine. I get my ususal welcome sound but then it slowly dies off. I check all my volume controls and find the master is turned all the way down. When I turn it up again, it automatically lowers it back down to nothing. No matter how much I yell or how many times I raise the volume, the same thing happens. Help?

Sounds like time for a virus scan.

Scanned the comp and no viruses, (actually ran about 10 scans). But I popped open the computer and found a random wire plugged into the card. The wire connected to the front of the case. After I unplugged it and rebooted, no more problems. Weird. :bandit:

A random wire plugged itself into your computer??? Remind me to stay away from your house!

Yah it makes me worry to. This wire was plugged into the side of the sound card and was controlling my volume. Darn computer smurfs. I hope they all get electrocuted! :angry2:
