hello folks. im having a bit of a problem like some of the others. i reformated my computer about 5-6 days ago and installed everything. then yesterday my sound just started not working. althought mp3s play and so does games. can someone please help me!
Hi rientile and welcome to GardenStew. Do you mean the Windows system sounds for example the tunes that play when you start up and shut down Windows? Go to: Start -> Control Panel -> Sounds and Audio Devices Click on the 'Sounds' tab on the top and try out a few of the system sounds by selecting them in the list below and then clicking the Play button. What do you observe?
Is the tab greyed out or just the contents of what appears when you click on the tab? Go to: Start -> Control Panel -> System -> 'Hardware' tab -> Device Manager Are there any items in the list with yellow question marks beside them?
