Computer audio help?

[Jerry]

Anyone out there computer savvy?
My Dell desktop produces no sound - for about 3 months now.
I have checked all connections, volume settings and software installations.

I even tried another set of speakers...

Any suggestions?

Happy New Year, Jerry.....

I highly recommend the gang over at Worldstart:

When I get into a jam, they never fail to help.

Have you done any updates? Check Dell's website for any info. I highly recommend not calling customer service until you have to. When we did for my sister's Dell, I could only understand every third word the guy said. I should have known when he said, "Hello my name is Bob. How am I to be helping you today?"

Have you looked in the device mgr to see if your sound card is working?

Go to Dell and put in your service tag. Even if it's not under warranty, it pulls up all the specifics to your computer. I would update the drivers for your sound card first.

Did you switch monitors? When I got my flat screen, I had to update my sound card and graphics card to get it all to work.

Well I got it working again....not sure how

I went to Dell's site and downloaded some audio stuff and I guess it worked.

Thanks for the tips y'all!
