you may need a sound card. but i'm no computer expert. I just know when I had no sound that was my problem.

Have you rebooted your computer? I used to have this problem intermittently, and often a reboot would fix the problem. It seemed to be some kind of weird Windows problem where it would lose track of the sound card. If the reboot doesn't work, the second step is to remove the sound card from the device manager and reinstall it. If that doesn't fix it, you may be looking for some new hardware. Best of luck!

Lot of possibilities:\n\n- Speakers not connected coreectly.\n- Speakers not connected to power and/or not turned on.\n- Computers volume turned off or turned down to the minimum.\n- Windows driver for your hardware not loaded.\n- Sound card not working.

Try going to the site where the sound card is from and downloading all applicable drivers for the speakers.  You will probably have to unplug the speakers, download the drivers, then restart the computer and plug the speakers back in.  Maybe your sound card took a crap on you and you need a new one.  Or... a virus is eating through your computer and it started there.  You should probably just take it to a computer tech and let them work out the kinks.  Or go to walmart and buy a new computer for $500.00

My mate had the same problem, no sound from the speakers, so this is what I did: (Locate the Opearating System CD - or the Recovery CD that came with your computer ready)\n\nI'm assuming you are using XP:\n\n1. Go to Start > Settings > Control Panel\n2. Click on Performance and Maintenance\n3. Select "See basic information about your computer\n4. Select Hardware\n5. Click on Device Manager\n6. Under Sound, Video and Game Controllers - do you see a yellow explaination mark, if so click on it to open it\n7. Click Re-Install Driver\n8. Insert the CD-ROM I mentioned above\n9. Make sure Install the software automatically is selected and click on next\n10. After that I cant remember but it should be straight forward

If you had sound before you probably just lost the driver for it. You don't need a card. If you bought the PC new look in the owners manual to see what make sound device you have and reinstall the driver. With XP it's on your Hard Drive already, just pick it from the list. If it's an on-board sound chip you may have to go into the setup utility (in your bios) and turn on Sound Blaster Legacy support. If all else fails see if the speakers are plugged in.

Plug in your speakers.  :-P\n\nRecheck all your settings, make sure nothing is muted.  Also make sure your sound card, if you have one, is installed properly and functioning.

you might try resetting it through the yahoo messenger audio wizard. Thats the easiest way to know if your sound card is working properly without doing a bunch of tech stuff.

You can go to your control panel and click on your "Sound and audio devices" icon doing so will get you the "Sound and audio devices Properties" in this window go to the Audio tab in the top and see if any thing is listed under the default device if there is nothing listed try clicking the drop down menu but if you see the menu has been disabled that mean your sound card driver have been corrupted. If your sound card is an internal sound card inbuilt on your mother board then try using your mother board CD and install the audio driver... I think this will work. \n\nBest Of luck

OK make sure the sound card is enabled in the BIOS then make sure if you have connected any front auto panel cables make sure they are correct or make sure in Windows setup that "Sounds" are installed," update the sound card drivers, make sure it is not on mute, try different speakers/headphones etc.

its simple. if u encounter that problem. #1: try reinstalling ur audio driver. if not #2: reformat ur drive then install a fresh copy of ur Operating System (windows). if not #3: replace ur sound card or ur motherboard if its a built-in type. ;)

your missing the standard sound file codec...or to understand that better....the sound drivers are not installed. What's the error your getting?....then google it and download the drivers you need from that providing site.
