Hi therandomone,

What is the Service Tag number on your Dell. Will help me find
information to relay to you about your computer and what to do.

Find your Service Tag

Entering the service tag of your Dell computer or peripheral helps
Dell deliver solutions tailored to the products you own. Your Service Tag is
a unique five- to seven- digit alphanumeric (letter and number) code, which
is found on a white bar-coded label affixed to your Dell computer or
peripheral.

Hi therandomone,

Do you have onboard Sound Chip or a PCI Sound Card? Don't have any
specific ideas, until you post information on your Motherboard's
Manufacturer and Model Number and your PCI Sound Card, if any.

Do you hear Windows opening and closing sounds?
