help-lost sound on laptop!

[Liam]

just within last hour sound has stopped working. Ive tried all obvious, unmute etc system re store. But it wont play.

When I opened a mp3 before it said there is a problem with the sound device. Now it doesnt say this it shows it playing but there is no sound.

Any ideas how I can sort it?

could it be a driver issue..might be worth reinstallin the sound driver

 

[Liam]

tried that by going to website and doing it. Not changed anything. How can it just stop workiing?

any other ideas? could it be knackered sound card? its only 8 month old. If it is knackered sound card whats the process can they just slot a replacement in without me losing anything from the harddrive?

think the sound will be intergrated on your mother board but if you do after take it in to be fix theres no reason why you should lose all your data. sorry i cant't be of any more help.am sure tho somreone will bealong shortly who can ...

sorted it. laptop had set itself up to use bluetooth device for audio rather than speakers.


On a side note can i use my mobile phone headset as a mic for my laptop to speak over net?
