No sound on my laptop!
 

I cant get any sound suddenly on my laptop and I tried everything I could find online and my computer said everything is fine but there is still no sound. All speakers are turned up.:icon_question:

Hello! The first thing you need to do is run a full virus scan with your anti-virus scan.
Then you need to check your drivers to see if any have become corrupted.

Obviously you need to check your sound settings to make sure the volume hasn't been muted or turned down.

If you don't know how I can post some step by step instructions on how to check wether your drivers are ok or not.

Check any option was muted on your laptop.

sounds (or mutes -.-) like i have the same issue
 

all of a suddon i have no sound ither

vista x64
emachines e525

tryed stock driver and latest realtek
reinstalled windows and no joy

device manager is happy
playback devices says "working properly" with a tick
when i click test and put my ear to the speaker i can hear it crackle ever so slightly

heres the weird thing

trying to play an mp3 in windows media
the visulisation starts up as if its playing
but the bar / timer dosnt move and no sound ofc

flash vids like youtube wont play.... the bar dosnt move

microsoft fix it says no problems found

it cant be a dodjy update coz i did a clean install of vista with network disabled

it cant be a driver coz the stock driver has allways worked b4

and i cant se it being hardware.... iv not dropped it or anything
and if that was the case it shouldnt affect the time/play bar thing

soooo any ideas? other than pee on it and buy another :icon_mrgreen:
