I can't hear sound thru my speakers/headset!
I have a problem...when i start up windows xp i hear sound and everything
works. But there is a clicking noise in the backround. I have speakers and headset and it does the same for both. after a couple of minutes the sound completely goes. i run a sound test to test if it was the speakers or the headset that was the problem and it turned out that they worked perfectly well. so i kno its a problem with the cpu. probably with the sound input or one of the devices in device manager. can any1 instruct me on how to fix this problem? o yeh ive tried cleaning it out with a cotton swab if that helps any. |

Using that cotton swab was probably not the best idea as that can leave
cotton in there or even cause static electricity that will really mess up the sound card. You most likely need to update the sound card drivers. Use Everest Home from www.lavalys.com to find out what sound card you have and it should even provide a link to the proper drivers ----- Nathan McNulty Kyle wrote: I have a problem...when i start up windows xp i hear sound and everything works.
