Guest walshy Posted February 11, 2007 Share Posted February 11, 2007 Got a new screen yesterday one of those flat screen ones. We have set it up but now we have no sound coming out of the speakers. Any help in getting sound back appreciated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest oa_exile Posted February 11, 2007 Share Posted February 11, 2007 Hi Walshy I am also not an expert but have you tried : Go into Control Panel > Sounds and Audio devices OR Go into Control Panel > Sound Effect Manager Play around with those Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt Posted February 11, 2007 Share Posted February 11, 2007 A pc moniter. And it's the desktop speakers that arn't working now. Sorry about the delay walshy, Do me a favour and go START MENU > RUN > and type devmgmt.msc Please check if there are any red crosses or yellow excamation marks against your devices - check the monitor, sound card and graphics cards especially.

Guest walshy Posted February 11, 2007 Share Posted February 11, 2007 There is a yellow exclamation mark under other devices > multimedia audio controller. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt Posted February 11, 2007 Share Posted February 11, 2007 Okay that's the problem. Hang on... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt Posted February 11, 2007 Share Posted February 11, 2007 Okay START MENU > RUN > devmgmt.msc again please. 1. Double-click Sound, video, and game controllers. 2. Double-click your sound device. 3. Click the Properties tab, and then double-click Audio Devices. 4. Click your sound device, and then click Properties. 5. Click Use audio features on this device. 6. Click OK until you return to Device Manager. 7. Restart your computer. See if that clears it up... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest walshy Posted February 11, 2007 Share Posted February 11, 2007 This is very confusing now. Still absolutly nothing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt Posted February 11, 2007 Share Posted February 11, 2007 Are you usung a windows xp device driver for the audio? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest walshy Posted February 11, 2007 Share Posted February 11, 2007 See thats what i think is wrong. A message keeps appearing about drivers and after having a mess in options before it says no drivers etc. Although we didn't get any disks etc with the screen.

Matt Posted February 11, 2007 Share Posted February 11, 2007 Ok Walshy, visit your sound cards manufacturers website, download the latest drivers, install them then restart your machine. Cheers, Rummy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
