Re: Sound problems

Tech Tip: Click here to run a free scan for Windows Errors and optimize PC performance



Does the sound volume icon show in the systray?
Is the sound muted?
What shows as your Preferred Device in Control Panel > Sounds > Audio tab?
Are any devices showing conflicts or as Unknown/Other in Device Manager?
Is your sound device listed in Device Manager under Sounds, Video and Game Controllers?

I have switched on today and I have no sounds but the media player still works!

The problem arose after I removed Windows One Care Beta that I decided to
evaluate - it caused so many problems I decided to remove it. I also removed
Windows Defender.

After removing them the sound was fine.

I have worked through other sound problems (Especially XP original sound
11/16/2005 - Carey Frisch ) with no luck.

Can anyone help please?

Thanks
