Sound on computer

What would you do if there was no longer any sound on your computer? And you'd checked to make sure that the volume was up and not muted, and that your speaker is plugged in and even has the green light on it that indicates it's working?

You could also try doing a system restore to the last checkpoint, in case there is some setting for the sound card in windows that somehow knocked the sound out. If that doesn't work, you might need new speakers. :(

Thanks for the idea! Do you know if I'd lose a lot of stuff if I did that? I've never done a system restore before.

System restore is designed to take your computer back to the last time it was updated....but it should not delete emails, music files, photos, word files, etc. You can back them up if you are worried but if you use the System Restore as Windows designed it, it should not wipe your system. You should find it in Programs > accessories > system tools > system restore, and the restore to the last checkpoint they recommend.

You are NOT reformatting

Got it. This is worth a try. Thank you.
