Acer laptop,
fresh install
had sound icon on toolbar
clearly on device manager as reltek AC'97
put audio to laptop in sterio


All there but no sound, feel it's something stupid and I am overlooking it.

Score to date: humbled teck 0 - mind of its own computer 1

Is Hardware acceleration turned on in Sounds and audio devices - volume - speaker settings - Advanced - performance tab? Sometimes that is a problem.

Will check as soon as I get back to that computer after lunch. i am at home on a Kutantu system I installed yesterday. Coclusioin: yes kubanto really stops malware crashing the system because it does that all by itself. Thanks for your post.

High, I am working on a french machine here so I imagine what you are saying is the sound confic in setting to which it opens up the choice of five volume,sound, audio, voice, material, - these all open except for the first one Volume to which it is grayed out.

Does this info, ring a bell for you?

Have you made sure that you have the updated drivers for realtek AC'97 sound drivers?

Agree, sounds like it's a problem in sound drivers if you even can't open Volume tab (which options I wanted you to check up). Try to update them.

is it an onboard sound card or an expansion card?
