If your computer is having problems playing sound, try using the Playing Audio troubleshooter to fix the problem. It checks for common problems with your volume settings, your sound card or driver, and your speakers or headphones.

To open the Playing Audio troubleshooter:

1.       Click the Start button, and then click Control Panel.

2.        In the search box, type troubleshooter, and then click Troubleshooting.

3.       Under Hardware and Sound, click Troubleshoot audio playback.

4.       Follow the instructions in the troubleshooter.

    TRY ACCESSING YOUR MASTER SOUND PANEL (Right click on the little speaker symbol on the bottom tool bar of your desktop) then select master volume mixer and then see if it shows any of those turned off. If they are click on them to turn them on. Also if you haven't already check to see if the off volume button on the top of your key board is turned off.

    Have you tried completely turning your computer off?
