| 125444 | 2003-03-04 23:29:00 | Youve given it about 14 hours dude, Sometimes people can only catch up once ever two or so days. Im not too sure of the answer myself, but try putting in the KEYWORDS of your problem into google. What is the sound card make/model Is it Onboard or an actual PCI or ISA soundcard Have you updated the drivers from the vendor's website? Cheers Chilling_Silence |

| 125445 | 2003-03-04 23:38:00 | sorry. but its not my computer, and they are not online (said this in first thread) and its not consistant but most of their games do not have sound or not much sound. & one day blends into next around here cant always remember the time, or when something was done. not just puter stuff. so i did not mean to be rude ok. just was online and thought someone could help who hadnt previously read it. and no idea about sound card or wot else as the speakers all work ok at other times, ill check to see if they no... but i wouldnt hold my breath they no less than me. thank you CS.

| 125446 | 2003-03-04 23:45:00 | The sound mixer settings have probably been changed. If there's an icon like a speaker on the bottom line, click on that, and experiment. It's unlikely to be anything else. |

| 125448 | 2003-03-05 00:39:00 | >but on bottom line of what? right hand side of the tray, it looks like a wee speaker. Double click on it to get the full menu with seperate volumes for .wavs, Cd, midi, and various others .Clueless |

| 125449 | 2003-03-05 01:10:00 | If they are running Windows XP home then the speaker icon is not shown by default usually. So might have to go into the control panel - Multimedia / Sound settings (Can't remember the exact name of the icon!) Should be able to adjust volume there and also tell it to put speaker icon onto taskbar. |
