Hi
I was adjusting some of the sound settings while Using the video feature on Skype and the sound went. The microphone still works (the receiver can still hear me)
I have checked other programs and no sound. I have re booted and still nothing :tazz:

Anyone got any ideas

Start the System Restore tool at a command prompt

1. Restart your computer, and keep tapping F8 during the initial start-up until you get options, select Safe Mode with a command prompt then press enter.

2. Log on to your computer with an administrator account or with an account that has administrator credentials.

3. Type the following command at a command prompt, and then press ENTER:


%systemroot%\system32\restore\rstrui.exe

4. Follow the instructions that appear on the screen to restore your computer to an earlier state.

Look for the most recent system checkpoint created before the errors to restore from
