No Sound
Computer has no sound after uninstalling and reinstalling
Windows98 with Dell technician's help. Before uninstalling, the computer had beautiful sound...now no sound. Under Device Manager tab on System Properties, the PCI Multimedia Audio Device had a yellow question mark so the technician told me to click Remove. Is this why I don't have any sound? Would uninstalling & reinstalling require me to have a new Sound Card. Dell technician has had me download a couple of different things even trying to use the USB Audio Drive, but nothing has worked. Anyone ever had this problem? |

No Sound
Go to start, run, type in CDPLAYER, and after putting in
an audio CD in the CD drive, hit OK. If you hear music, then it's because of a new patch to windows and I'm having that problem too. If you are NOT getting sound, then it should be pretty easy to fix. Let us know... |

No Sound
I have a similar problem, but it didn't involve
uninstalling and reinstalling win98. I get the keyboard beep on boot-up, but nothing else. No .wav sounds, no cd music, even though the media player shows the cd is spinning. It was working fine yesterday, then suddenly no sounds, though I didn't change anything. I sure hope somebody has an answer to this.

Anyone ever had this problem? Hey guess what? I am having the exact same problem. The thing is that it says I have no PC cards installed, so I don't know what to do, I hope I can find out what it is. |

I think you have lowered the sound volume of your sound player, or you have
muted its sound. But if this is not true, Try these ways: 1- If you have a "Mute" button on your key board, see if you haven't pushed that key or you haven't changed the sound volume using keyboard buttons. 2- Double click on "SysTray" which is beside the clock. Then see if any of the choices are muted. 3- --Right-Click-- My Computer-- Properties-- Device Manager--One Click-- Sound, Video and Game controlers-- Remove--"Are you Sure?"--Yes--OK Then: Restart your computer. If this worked, please let me know. Javad IRAN wrote in message ...
