Hi there,
I don't know what the hell I did wrong... but I was
playing a song on Windows Media Player, then I paused it
and went to do something else... I come back, press play,
and no sound comes. I can't play CDs, mp3s, anything on
websites, any of the Windows sounds, etc. Nothing plays.
I tried unplugging the speakers and plugging them in
again... (I had the same issue with my mouse about a week
ago, it just didn't work, and this solved the problem).
However, that didn't do a thing. Then I tried restarting,
that didn't do anything either, since I didn't hear my
start-up music. I'm soundless The green light on the
speakers is on. I just can't hear anything. It's really
odd. I've paused and played songs millions of times, and
it just didn't play this time...
Did I press some keys that disabled the sound or what? I
don't know if this is a hardware problem or something on
the computer settings. But likely not hardware since the
light is on... ah i don't know
Or maybe it is a hardware problem.. I went to my device
manager, and looked under all my sound stuff. Everything
is enabled. Hmm.. I have no idea what else to do. No one
else uses this computer.
And on the little taskbar by the clock.. the sound thingy
isn't muted or anything. I've kind of poked around my
sound settings in my control panel, and nothing seems
wrong. My volume control panel is all normal.
When I play a song it appears to play, (shows the
spinning graphic, i have ambience: randomization.. you
know what i mean) but no sound.
If you need some computer info.. this comp. was purchased
in March/02.. WinXp Home.. don't ask me about the sounds
cards or whatever, I don't know about that... the sound
has worked flawlessly up until now. Same with the rest of
the computer. It's never frozen or anything. And I'm not
noticing any other problems either.
Help! This is terribly upsetting
Regards,
Maxwell
