I use a pretty old Dell laptop (it doesn't have it's own cd rom) with a windows XP os.
Recently I have noticed that whenever I try to watch a video, listen to some music, play a game, the sound just does not come. Other sounds, like an error alerts, do come, however. No problem with the pictures, I just can't hear the sound that comes with it.
I tried to solve the problem myself and sometimes it worked. here's how: I go to the control panel, change the sound scheme to windows default, and get the sound back. Now, sadly, that is not helping either. Not even when I attach head phones.
I checked the Sound and Audio Devices properties. In the very first tab (volume) it says "no audio device". Same thing in the third tab (audio); under Sound playback it says "no playback devices." Same goes for every other tabs there.
SO pls, pls, if anyone knows how to solve this problem, pls email me at
[email protected]. BTW I don't know what sound card I got in my laptop.
