Hi guys, Newbie here.

I have a Windows XP Home Edition. (5,1 Build 2600)

Yesterday my sound completely disapeared whilst I was watching a Youtube video. I reset the computer thinking it may have been a one-off and to my delight the sound was back and I got on my merry way. However after 10 minutes or so it vanished again and I was left watching audioless videos. I did a system restore to 4 days ago, and still no luck. The sound still cuts out after 10 minutes.

If you need specs to give you more detail, I can post them here if you ask.

Anything you need to know just ask.

I am in great need, as I work on this computer, and I am also currently taking a guitar course where I get sent videos to my computer, and I cannot hear the lessons!

Thanks

Hi Luvmojo,
I've had the same problem off and on. I think what is causing mine at least is more than one program is using the sound..I had Media Player, Utube and itunes up yesterday and now I've got the intermittent sound thing going on. What I do to at least fix it so I can hear the immediate program that I want is go into the Sound Devices in my Control Panel, click on the Advanced button, then make sure the SWSynth slider is all the way up - usually when this happens I find it slid off for some reason; press ok and you should be back in business. I hope this works for you )
