I've just switched my computer on and the sound isn't working even though it was fine y'day. I've tried re-starting it and i've plugged in skype head phones to see if it was just the speakers but nothing is working. I've also ran a virus check and it hasn't found any viruses. Can anyone help?

sound option in the control menu shows that the volume is loud, it's not telling me there's any problems. My partner got the computer off some relative ages ago, haven't got a clue about the sound card. My partner is in Switzerland so can't find out either, can I?

thanks every1, I've managed to fix it! Only one wire from the speakers was connected to the comp, the other one that was connected was from the skype head set and because it's the same colour as the other speaker lead (and they're all tangled!) I didn't realise. Doh!

Are the speakers actually plugged into the computer? Sometimes the cable gets tugged out.
Also, make sure they're not accidently muted or turned right down by accident.

it could be with the aid of fact many motives. a million. Are the audio equipment plugged into the final port? 2. Did your sound ever paintings? 3. in the journey that your on residing house windows XP do a equipment restoration. this might decide for many problems even though it eliminates all courses apart from those equipped in and backup information. 4. you have gotten blown the audio equipment or they have been given previous and stopped working. purchase new ones.

dbl clk on the speaker icon near the clock. The window that comes up should not have the mute box checked.
If you have msn messenger, do the sound test. If it doesn't work there is a box to clk on that says 'repair'. That fixed my problem at one time.

Have you tried to see the volume controls? It's the Speaker Icon next to the clock...

Double click on the speaker icon on the task bar and check all levels are up and no mutes are switched on.

You might need a new sound card? check the volume controls on the task bar, it may have muted itself?
