sound problens

packard bell one two touch screen no sound coming from machine have tried re-installing drivers but still no sound when testing comp says working ok but still no sound any help would be appreciated

Volume turned up? Nothing muted?
No headphones plugged in?
Have you tried a system restore or a driver rollback?

Not a lot else you can do other than try it with a set of external speakers or a headphone
The problem with these all in one systems is that the failure of a trivial component (e.g. speakers) can ruin the whole machine
This machine can't be all that old - is it still under warranty? If it is, call them ASAP

If not, and the solution isn't obvious (and you're sure you've used the correct drivers) then the only cost effective option would be a plug in USB sound card and external speakers

thanks for imput machine is 18 mnts old, will try using it with a headphone and see what happens. or might have to try system restore again

or even a factory reset - that will have a hidden recovery partition on it. I think you get into that via the F8 /"repair my computer" menu, but the documents should make that clear
If it doesn't work after a factory reset, its dead

hi thanks jon s for your help one last thing you might have answer is that using earphones there is sound so obviously the sound card is working, is there a setting on windows 7 which is preventing the sound being transmitted visa speakers
thanks again for your advice

The speaker icon on the Task Bar has a cross through it if no speaker is connected.

thanks Alan but the speaker icon is not muted, I just don't know where else to look

I have a DVD that boots Linux Mint. I use this once in a blue moon to help me with computer issues. If you made yourself something like that and used it to load a temporary version of Linux and then found that the speakers worked you would know for certain you have a Windows software problem. If they didn't work then it could well be a hardware problem but it could also be a problem with Linux not recognising your sound chip.

Many Thanks Alan B for your advice

Go into Sound on Control Panel and check that the correct sound card is being used. There may be more than one "speaker type" device installed.

thank you all for your kind advice, the problem is now sorted, and your help was appreciated

Chris G, I know this is a while ago, but how did you resolve this?

Sean little point posting repeat questions to a four year old thread.
However I suspect he simply had the wrong audio device selected
