Sound has died

Featured Replies

Hey, T&C, I have another problem...

The sound on my Laptop has randomly died. I am using Windows XP SP3. I tried to watch a video on YouTube, but it would not load any sound. However, if I turn my head phones up to full blast, I can still hear that static sound you get...

 

Any ideas to why it has done this?

Thanks.

Does the sound work without headphones? If not, your speaker might be faulty.

No, I don't get the static sound with my speakers....

 

I don't get any sound when I play video or music with the head phones plugged in either.

Are they usb headphones?

 

Sometimes a usb port will go faulty or not provide enough power and you should either:

 

  1. Plug it into a different usb port
  2. Get a powered usb hub such as this Belkin model http://"http://www.belkin.com/IWCatProductPage.process?Product_Id=369775"

 

 

Something else which may help is, somewhere in your sound options you can check "playback devices"

Make sure the output device is set to your headphones

 

 

This is what came up off the top of my head, I'll try and check back later.

Oh thats right, its Runescape. We dont play skills to have fun. We do it to sit in a bank and grind away, seeing who can do it the longest.

No, they are not USB Head Phones. They are the standard 3.5mm jack head phones.

I tired the method of Audio Play Back, it didn't work.

 

When I mute the sound, the static goes away, then when I unmute, it comes back...

You may have blown the speakers, I can't be sure though.

Hmm, it's not plugged in the microphone jack is it?

Have you tried updating or reinstalling the drivers? Or if something was installed and messed up the sound you can check the sound devices in the device manager to make sure it's still listed there

 

I gotta go to the store so I can't think of much else, I'll check back later

Go to Control Panel>Sound>Configure and there should be a box that tells you what makes the sound on your computer - find out the company then search "xxxx drivers".

I honestly feel [developmentally delayed]ed now. Turns out the Wave setting was down. My stupid sister must have messed with it.

FML.

 

Can close now...
