PIII 550-64m ram-about 6 months old-separate sound card(not part of mother board). I am not getting any sound through my speakers. CDs will still play in the cdrom, sound through headphones on the player. All the connections seem to be proper. Worked fine until I upgraded to Netscape 6. I removed Netscape 6 and kept 4.7. Now I have no audio on any type of player. It seems to be a software or configuration problem. I know just enough to be dangerous. Anyone have a suggestion?

You may want to check to see if you might have muted the speakers. Down by the clock in the lower right hand corner, you should see a speaker icon. Right click now it, and click on, open volume controls. See if there is a check in the mute box by Play control, or CD Audio, WAve or MIDI. If there is uncheck it. That might clear it up for you.

Hi hockeydad. Welcome to hft. http://www.helpfromtechs.com/ubb/smilies/hi.gif Since this seems to be software rather than hardware, I'm moving it to that forum where I'm sure some of the great folks here will brainstorm with you to find a solution. http://www.helpfromtechs.com/ubb/smilies/smile.gif

This is an option also go here and download tweak ui. Install it and the go to the repair function and under the drop down menu it says repair file association. Should work if was caused by the uninstalling Netscape 6.0. If you have not installed treak UI make sure you read the instructions, and if it doesnt work, it is still a great utility to have that is free anyway. But thats the first thing I would try. Also what sound card is it? http://download.cnet.com/downloads/0-1461985-100-2830963.html?tag=st.dl.100 01-103-1.lst-7-1.2830963 (http://download.cnet.com/downloads/0-1461985-100-2830963.html?tag=st.dl.10001-103-1.lst-7-1.2830963)
