1330411	2013-02-27 19:51:00	Asus K50IJ Series laptop, Win 7. This has been happening more and more often. I'll turn the laptop on and I'll get ZERO sound from anything. The only way (that I know of) to fix it is to reboot the laptop. Because it's hapening more often I'd like to find a way to fix it, or at least get sound going again without rebooting each time. Any ideas?	--Wolf-- (128)

1330413	2013-02-28 04:53:00	BIOS is 217 if I've looked that up correctly. Again it's something that's only recently started happening and getting worse. I've had this laptop for a couple of years.	--Wolf-- (128)

1330418	2013-03-02 07:54:00	Have you tried this? (support.asus.com) SRS is installed When the sound doesn't work, have a look in the device manager and see if the Audio is showing ( sound, Video and Game controllers). Also go into the Control Panel/ Sound under playback is there anything selected /showing. Will try that next time sound isn't working. Thanks to both, hopefully can figure something out to solve this.	--Wolf-- (128)
