how to get my sound working?
399944
There is not enough information in your post to make an accurate determiniation of the problem.  Has it ever worked?  Did it suddenly stop working?  What were you doing when it stopped working?  Does plugging headphones in to soundcard work?  \n\nThere are numerous possibilities:  \nThe Soundcard might be busted.\nThe Speakers might be busted.\nYou might need to upgrade your drivers for the soundcard.\nYour Volume Mixer settings might need adjusting.  \n\nCheck your sound mixer volume \n\nControl Panel -> Sound and Audio Devices then click the advanced button.  Make sure nothing is checked mute and that nothing is set to 0 volume.  \n\nI wish I could be of more help, but I lack the magical ability to diagnose the problem with the details provided

Put in the soundcard. Install drivers. If not included look up the drivers for the model number online. Check in device manager and control panel/sounds and audio to make sure it works.

Have you tried to adjust your sound proprties on your pc?Go there by going through your control panel then to sounds. You should see speaker settings go to advanced then click on 5.1 sound. I hope you installed the drivers right.

Try upgrading your audio card drivers. If that doesn't help, get a new sound card.

Go to Run and type in 'dxdiag' and select the Sound tab and select Test DirectSound.  If you get no sound, go to Device Manager and uninstall the sound driver, then re-boot.  If that doesn't work, either the speakers are dead or your sound card is dead.  By the way, is the power light for your speakers on?

You need to find out what kind of sound card you have, then download the latest drivers. You most probably will have to open up the computer and look at the sound card. It will either be part of the motherboard, or its own card. But somewhere on it it should say a model or manufacturer.

check if the cables are plugged properly. if you still get no sound, and if you are knowledgeable enough, reseat the sound card on the tower. u can also try other speakers. dont forget to turn on the power and volume of course ! :P

Check if your speaker is connected correctly on your computer. Check if it is not muted. If it still does not work, reinstall your sound card. If it doesnt, maybe there is a problem either on your sound card or on your speaker. To isolate it, try connecting your speaker with other PC, if there are sounds produce then we can conclude that most likely your sound card is defective.\n\nRegards

If you have a recovery disc try installing your sound driver again. Go to Control Panel and then Go to Systems. Check what kind of sound card you have.\n\nThen go to http://www.soundcard-drivers.com/ and install the appropriate driver for it.

Details of this error: C00D11BA (Cannot play the file because there is a problem with your sound device)\n\nLooks like your sound card is not configured properly. Click Start -> Run -> Type Control and Click OK.\nThis should open up Control Panel. Next Open Sounds and Audio Devices and check if everything's fine or not. You might have to reinstall your sound card's drivers.\n\nHope this helps.\n\nAll the Best!\n\n\nThanks,\nManish

Try making sure all connections are plugged in correctly, mute isnt on and if all fails try looking at your sound card try downloading a new driver for it.
