Solve : NO AUDIO - HELP? |
Answer» <html><body><p>My sister gave me her Lap top to play around with to see if I can get the sound working again. She is attending <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/university-721330" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about UNIVERSITY">UNIVERSITY</a> and requires the audio in order to listen into lectures on-line. The problem is if it's a sound card, driver, etc that is needed. How would I know? <br/><br/>Can anyone help?Start by checking the manual to see how the volume is physically controlled on the <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/laptop-1066410" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about LAPTOP">LAPTOP</a> & make sure it's not set at minimum. Next, in Windows, check if there is a volume control <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/icon-248595" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about ICON">ICON</a> in the systray, bottom right, - click on this & ensure that nothing's muted. If there's no volume control icon, or if it's set correctly, open Control Panel/Device Manager and see if 1) you have any sound controllers installed & 2) if there is an asterisk against them. If there is no (1), then you have a <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/hardware-482405" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about HARDWARE">HARDWARE</a> problem - either the soundcard is faulty or it needs re-enabling in the BIOS. If (2) is the case, you need to double click on the asterisk to check what the fault is - either hardware or lack of drivers.<br/>Check these first & post back if further help neededtype dxdiag in the run box....this may give you more info on what is going on..</p></body></html> | |
