729009 2008-12-14 20:08:00 I've started a new thread for this as the problem has changed....

Yesterday Speedy helped me discover that the cable between my DVD Player and the motherboard needed replacing.
Following this, I can't get any sound out of my computer at all. I've checked and rechecked all the settings and speakers and all is OK..

While following Speedy's instructions I went into BIOS. Could I have inadvertently changed anything there that would affect the sound?

If not, any suggestions on what to do next?

Thanks

Do we still need this cable (audio) for modern system?

729011 2008-12-14 20:52:00 The only thing someone may have changed is the sound in the BIOS. But then, the sound probably wouldnt appear in windows at all

If someone disabled it.

Other than that its either dead, or the wrong drivers are installed for it. Or one of the options under volume arent ticked / unticked

The IDE cable not the audio (which isnt really used these days, unless the system is old), needed replacing BKT

Thought you might be interested in how this ended up.

I finally got a technician to look at it. He found that the sound card had failed. Quite a rare occurance he said.

Thanks for your comments
