Re: Sound In Outlook Express

If you click on a wav file, does it play?

If you go to Control Panel | Sounds and look at the various events and associated sounds, if you choose to play one there, does it act like its playing, or is that disabled?

And check the volume controls again to ensure one of them isn't moved way down or muted.

All sound works except Windows Sounds or sound I add to IE or OE functions.

Check the cables to make sure the speakers are plugged in. Then check the
volume controls to make sure nothing got muted. Does Windows Media Player
play sounds?
