No Sound...at all!

[Rachel2507]

Hi,

Im having trouble getting any sound out of my speakers.
Ive downloaded vlc and k-lite 4 the audio codecs.
(I didn't get any video at first, but after installing vlc, that problem was solved, but still leaving me w/ the no-sound-issue)
The speakers are attached to my (philips) monitor and connected 2 my pc w/ a cable inserted in a line-out socket
Ive tried everything i can think of, n now im out of ideas.
So...can any1 help me?

Have you gotten any sound out of it before ? I ask this becouse it could be that you do not have A a driver for your sound. To check this go to MyComputer Then system Info ,then click on hardware tab and click on the device manager to check to see if you have a driver for it .

are you sure you needed to add audio codecs?

it is a good idea to load codecs based on need only. massive packages
of codecs are known to cause trouble for all kinds of reasons.
one type of problem is loss of that functionality all together.

many applications when needing a codec will name that codec
you can see if you find that codec as a single before resorting
to a package.

i remembered sth btw.
i went and did what they said on this site http://www.free-codecs.com/guides/How_to_install_default_codecs_in_Windows_XP_2000.htm
IMA ADCM Audio CODEC was reinstalled
but w/ the Microsoft ADPCM Audio CODEC they asked for a cd...
