No Sound on Toshiba Laptop

[GeoffB]

HI Tgell,

Many thanks for all the great advice you have given me over the past weeks, however, I've taken your advice and purchased a USB sound card from Ebay ( £1.00 plus postage). It arrived today and works fine which means that I can now speak to my family on Skype again.

Once again I'm very greatfull for your time and many thanks to the people who put this type of forum together.

Best regards

Geoff

Sorry you could not get the sound working on the laptop but you were able to find another solution that was not expensive. I guess those cheap USB sound cards on EBay do work. I was going to link to one of those but did not know how it would work for you. Thanks for the feedback.

It might be a hardware problem as well as software. First of all please make sure your hardware is in working condition (also make sure you have sound card installed to begin with).

If you re installed your operation system recently, chances are you didn't installed proper sound card drivers, so please make sure you installed proper sound card drivers.

If still you can't rectify this issue, you can use a USB sound card.

I hope it would be of some help.
