Hi, and welcome to MG's,
With you having a Dell machine you should have a service tag attached to your machine, using this tag you can find and resolve your issue with the audio on the dell website.
In your device manager are there any yellow ! beside the sound,video and games controller ? if so highlight and scan for hardware changes or up date drivers.

Thanks for your replies. I have gone to Dells website and have done as you both have suggested however, when I try to download the drives I get "Application cannot be started contact the application vendor?

Do I need to contact dell I do not have a warranty?


Thanks Again

chessmaster

 

Greetings, chessmaster.

When you click the links that DavidGP provided, a 'Download Options' dialog box should open, with the options of 'Download via Dell Driver Download Manager' or 'Download via your Internet Browser' - choose the second option ('Download via your Internet Browser'), and your browser should then start downloading the file(s).

 

Thanks again, when I do as suggested a box pops up do you want to install this application? gives choice install , Don't install. I hit install and again same message application cannot be started. contact application vender.
I am sending detail of the message.

Thanks,
chessmaster

Thanks Again for your response. I have Avira,winpatrol. I have tried several virus protection programs however they all are memory hogs. do you have any suggestions for this? I am thinking about install spybot and spyware blaster. I tried antispyware and spyware terminator hogs... I also have crapcleaner..

chessmaster

 

I have just today installed spyware blaster and spybot. I installed Panda virus Program. I t was listed on greek website as 34mgs or so and it turned out to be 110mgs or more am going to uninstall and try AVG. WHAT i WOULD KIKE IS TO FIND A PROGRAM THAT USES VERY LITTLE RESOURCES. I hope this helps in solving my sound problem and driver updates

chessmaster

 

Frankly, I'd advise against AVG until they work out their current problems - support forums have been rife with AVG troubles recently.

I'd suggest avast!, which runs very well on XP systems and is certainly not a resource hog.

I have a feeling, though, that you've got some underlying problems, maybe caused by the installation and removal of so many protection applications. Frankly, if I were in your shoes, I'd do the following:

1. Search for any dedicated uninstall programs from the different protection programs, and run them.

2. Download and install Revo Uninstaller to further clean any traces of the uninstalled programs.

3. Run CCleaner's Registry cleaner to clear up any leftover fragments in the registry.

 

Thanks again. I use Revo to uninstall programs and I do use crapc. I willunistall AVG and try Avast again. the geek website list the program at 47.6 mg however the program is around 140mg. IS their not a virus program that uses less than 50mg and does the job? I will search and try to find when with less Mgs.
Thanks Again,

Usually, the file sizes listed are for the downloadable setup.exe of the program in question. Once installed, virtually any program is going to expand to a much larger file size, and other files are going to be decompressed that are used by the program - hence the much larger total size once installed.

I doubt you'll find a good antivirus program that's less than 50mb when installed, unless it's a command-line version.

 

thanks, I went to dell website and talked to tech support in hardware dept he give me all the drivers and i got error codes trying to install when the drivers he said it was a software problem. I talked to software and they said I might...need to reinstall service pack 1,2, and 3 of course they wanted me to purchase a new warranty I am not sure what to do, any suggestions?
