Volume On, No Sound.

Hi everyone, recently when I went to watch a video on my desktop there was no sound. There was picture and no sound, everything is working fine I just can't hear anything. The volume is up, and i've tried over and over again. On the contrary, when I go to the internet to watch a video rather than watching one that is stored on my desktop I can hear it just fine. All the videos on my pc have been on there for a year so I don't think it would be a problem with a download because I haven't downloaded anything recently. All my drivers are updated, every single one, and my sound card is fine. Can someone help me with this please? Thanks Much.

Are there separate settings for your sound card driver software? I know I can turn the volume up or down on my computer using either through the media player, or the sound card controls. You didn't mention doing a system restore, so if all else fails, you could try an earlier point in time to when the sound was working.

Just for the heck of it, try a different player. I suggest VLC Media Player, it plays all kinds of sound formats.

VideoLAN - Official page for VLC media player, the Open Source video framework!
