sound problem????

yup..my sound isn't in the task bar and i tried reinstalling my audio driver but still not working.

srry delete this i already have another thread open.

 

Start > control panel > sound and Audio devices.

Do you have one listed at top next to the speaker? Click the check mark to show in the task bar if it's not there. This problem is very vague. If this doesn't help we can move on to check your system devices.

 

it says "windows cannot display the volume control on the taskbar because the volume control program has not been installed."

 

Do you have a sound card or are you using the sound from your motherboard?

Is your computer pre-bought? Which brand/model?

Go to Control Panel > System > Hardware Tab > Device Manager under sound what do you have listed and do you have any Red exclamation points or yellow question marks? If so over which ones?

 

i have an older pre bought dell computer

dimension 2400

and there is no red or yellow exclamation

also heres whats listed

audio codecs
legacy audio drivers
legacy video capture drivers
media control devices
soundmax integrated digital audio
unimodem half-duplex audio drive
video codecs

 

Go to Add/Remove programs do you have a program called SoundMax Audio Driver? If not you should download/reinstall that as well.

Did you recently clear out some programs from your computer and possibly removed that by accident not knowing what it was?
