Click to expand... I dont think this particular PC has ever been used with any sound on. It doesnt have any speakers but the monitor has built in speakers. It may be that it has no sound card but I dont know the idiots way to check:redface: Upvote 0

D dean5000v Jun 9, 2009 #4 you most probably don't have any audio drivers installed on your machines if all the hardware is plugged in. Your audio drivers should of come on a cd with your PC , If they are missing you can get them from the manufacturers websites. Reactions: MyAccountantOnline Upvote 0

Look at the back of the monitor, or on the monitor cable itself, as sometimes it will have another little jack to plug in for sound. Reactions: MyAccountantOnline Upvote 0
