    Sound OK on Skype - Everything else = Silence?


    Tower PC with Gigabyte 78LMT Mainboard Win7 Ultimate 32 Bit.
    It has Realtek Audio built-in.
    Obviously I loaded all drivers etc...
    Using my Headset Only...
    Sound OK on Skype, but everything else just Silence?

    Are you asking how to get to that screen?

    Or are you asking what to do once you get to that screen?

    In the notification area (down by the clock)...
    ...right click on the speaker icon
    ...select Sounds from the context menu:

    Sound OK on Skype - Everything else = Silence?-sound.png

    Once the window opens, select the tab named Communications.

    Select the option for Do nothing

    Click on Apply.

    You can leave the window open while you test sounds.
