Sounds not working on my sisters laptop:



This computer is about 2 years old, Vista, laptop, Compaq, 1GB RAM, 2.00Ghz AMD turion 64.

try screwing with the Sound settings in the control panel?

[lostmodz26]

I've tried everything except re-formatting.

Whenever I press a key during startup it makes a beep and its really anoying.

My dad says re-formatting but I dunno.

you try Device manager?? if so, then all i know else to do is, turn off your comp, unplug your sound card,, (have to open laptop DUHH) turn on the comp, turn it off, plug the sound card back in,, the comp should detect the card and let it re install

but before you go all extreme,, hit,, "Ctrl+Esc" type sound, look for the one with the lil speaker next to it and hit enter and see if its just your speakers are turned off

if it is blank right click the empty box and make sure "Show Disabled Devices" and "Show Disconnected Devises" are on

Thanks for your help but I think that I know what the problem is.
I think that it is not my sound card, but its just picking up my dazzle:



I think I can solve it.
Could a moderator close this?

Are you sure its not hardware related?

[iKhaosmaster]

Try updating your sound drivers. If not uninstall the whole driver from device manager and then install the drivers again.
