Make sure the speakers are not muted. Look at bottom right of screen at bar where a little speaker symbol is shown. Should not have X through it.





Make sure volume is turned up.





Make sure you have the driver from Dell insrtalled





Go to Device Manager to see if sound is working and latest drivers installed.





Attatch external speakers to verify it is not your headphone jack that is bad. The headphne jack opens the path to internal speakers, and sometimes it gets broke and stays open, hence no sound on laptop speaker but will give sound on external ones.The sound on my Dell laptop won't work.

Hi,


You need to Uninstall and Reinstall your Audio Sound Drivers for your system so please do this:-


From your desktop start menu,


Go start %26gt; run then type “DEVMGMT.MSC” (type it in small case) then press the enter key.


Your system device manager will now open.


Look for a “Yellow / Question Marks” next to your Audio %26amp; Sound Settings.


Now right click and select “Uninstall” (trust me this is correct)


Click “Yes” you are sure


Then reboot your system.


As your system boots up and it gets past your load windows page, windows will detect your “Audio %26amp; Sound” card etc, and auto starts “the new hardware Wizard” which will then install the correct drivers for your system.





Now go to your Player and listen to all your tracks again.





P.S


The best “Free Player” is the VLC Player (it’s great and will play all types of Vid’s and Music file types as the correct codec files are built in already).


Don’t forget to install the player and then reboot before you use it.
