Pratsy, but no sound. What should you do if there is no sound on your computer? There is no driver for the sound card

Good day.

This article is based on special evidence, and is a special collection of reasons through which sound can be produced on a computer. Most of the reasons, before speaking, are easy to do on your own! To be clear, the sound may be due to software or hardware reasons. For example, you can check the functionality of the speakers on another computer or audio/video equipment. Because the smell of the robots and the sound are similar, it goes beyond all the power to the software part of the computer (and the axis is more detailed).

And so, let's get started...

6 reasons why there is no sound

1. Non-functional speakers (the cords often bend and break)

Here's what you need to learn when adjusting the sound and speakers on your computer! And then, as you know, such incidents happen: you come to help people find food with sound, and then they forget about the darts.

Before that, you may have connected them to the wrong input. On the right, on the computer’s sound card there is a number of outputs: microphone, speakers (headphones). As a rule, the microphone output is covered with a red color, and for the speakers - green. Return to this respect! So, the axis is not large, the article is about, there the power was discussed in more detail.

Small 1. Cord for connecting speakers.

Sometimes it happens that the inputs are very worn, and they only need to be slightly corrected: removed and reinserted. You can also clean your computer with a saw at the same time.
It is also important that the speakers themselves are turned on. On the front side of many devices you can install a small LED, which signals that the speakers are connected to the computer.

Small 2. These speakers are turned on, so the green LED on the device body lights up.

Before speech, if the loudness in the speakers is increased to the maximum, a slightly more characteristic “spike” can be observed. Return to all respects. Regardless of the elementary nature, most people have problems because of this...

2. The sound of changes in settings

Another thing that needs to be done is to check that everything is already set up on the computer, it is possible in Windows to programmatically change the sound to a minimum or turn on the sound devices in the control panel. It is possible that if there is simply a change to the minimum, the sound is playing even weaker and there is simply no sound.

Let's show setup on Windows 10 (for Windows 7, 8 everything will be the same).

1) Opened control panel, then we move on to the section " control and sounds«.

3) Your “sound” tab will display audio devices (including speakers, headphones) connected to your computer. You see the required speakers and click their controls (div. Fig. 4).

4) In the first contribution that appears before you (“zagalni”), you need to pay close attention to two speeches:

• - If you have identified a device, you will need drivers for it. If there are none, please use the utility alone and recommend downloading the necessary driver;
• - marvel at the bottom of the window, and see what is covered with the device. It’s not easy to turn it on.

5) Without closing the window, we move on to the “Rivni” masonry. Marvel at the thickness, it may be more than 80-90%. Listen until you get a sound, and then adjust (div. Fig. 6).

Small 6. Levels of thickness

6) The “additional” tab has a special button for checking the sound - when you press it, you may play a short melody (5-6 seconds). If you don’t feel it, go to the approaching point, saving adjustments.

Small 7. Checking the sound

7) You can, before speaking, go to “ control panel/equipment and sounds" and open " adjusting the intensity“as shown in Fig. 8.

Here we are tskavit, and why not change the sound to a minimum. Before speech, in this contribution you can change the sound to a singing type, for example, all that is heard in the Firefox browser.

8) I will remain.

The lower right coat (along with the same age) also has its thickness adjusted. Check that there is a normal level of volume and that the speaker does not get wet, like the little one below. If everything is fine, you can move on to point 3.

Small 10. Setting up the volume on the computer.

Important! After adjusting Windows, it is important to pay attention to the loudness of the speakers themselves. Perhaps the regulator should be set to minimum!

3. There is no driver for the sound card

Most often, the computer has problems with the drivers for the video and sound card... In fact, the third step in updating the sound is to check the drivers. Perhaps, you could have already identified this problem in advance...

To find out if everyone is out of their way, go to device manager. For whom do you open it? control panel, then open the tab “ Obladnannya ta sound", and then launch device manager. The most valuable method (dazzling Fig. 11).

In the device manager, select the tab “ Sound, game and video devices“. If you have a sound card and it is connected: it must be displayed.

1) If the device is displayed and the sign on the other side is lit (or red), it means the driver is not working correctly, or it is not installed. In this case you will need to check the driver version. Before speaking, I should use the program - I’ll show you how to install your card, and also show you where to find the driver requirements for it.

An excellent way to update and check drivers is to use utilities for auto-updating and searching for drivers for whatever your PC has: . I highly recommend it!

2) If you don’t have a sound card, but don’t run Windows... Everything you need can be done here. Perhaps the device is faulty, because you connected it badly. I recommend that you first clean your computer, blow out the slot, if you do not have a sound card installed. Zagalom, who has a problem, has to do with everything, with the hardware part of the computer (or in the fact that it’s in the device’s BIOS, about Bos, a little bit lower in statistics).

Small 12. Device manager

You may also want to update your drivers or install drivers of other versions: older ones or newer ones. It often happens that vendors are unable to handle all possible computer configurations, and it is possible that your system's drivers may conflict with each other.

4. No codecs for audio/video

When you turn on the computer, you have sound (obviously, for example, Windows), and when you turn on some kind of video (AVI, MP4, Divx, WMV, etc.) - there is a problem either with the video programmer, or in the codecs, or in the file itself (It may not be zipped, try opening another video file).

1) If there is a problem with the video processor, I recommend that you install another one and try it. For example, the program gives excellent results. They already have codecs optimized for their work, so they can open more video files.

2) If there is a problem with codecs, I would like to work out two speeches. First, remove your old codecs from the system completely.

Also, install a new set of codecs – K-Lite Codec Pack. First of all, this package has a powerful and fast Media Player programmer, or all the most popular codecs will be installed that support all the most popular video and audio formats.

Article about K-Lite Codec Pack codecs and their correct installation:

Before speaking, it is important how to insert them, and insert them correctly, then. redial To do this, download the new set and, at the time of installation, select the “Lots of Stuff” mode (more details about this in the article about codecs - a little more added).

Small 13. Codec adjustment

5. Incorrectly configured Bios

If you have a built-in sound card, change your Bios settings. If the sound device is set up, it is unlikely that you will be able to use music in Windows. I’ll be honest, this problem rarely arises, because... After checking the settings of the Bios - the sound card is turned on.

To enter the setup center, press the F2 or Del button (located to the PC) while the computer is turned off. Make sure that the button to enter the Bios is written on the new page.

For example, the ACER computer turns on - the DEL button is written at the bottom - to enter the Bios (div. Fig. 14).

Small 14. Bios login button

In Bios you need to find a row to add the word “ Integrated«.

Small 15. Integrated Peripherals

From the list you need to know your audio device and see what is included. On the little one 16 (lower) it is turned on, if you have settings like “Disabled” - change it to “Enabled” or “Auto”.

Small 16. Upgrade AC97 Audio

After this, you can exit the Bios, saving settings.

6. Viruses and advertising software

Where would we be without viruses... Moreover, there are so many of them, it’s unknown what stinks they can bring to the future.

First of all, show respect to the work of the computer as a whole. As parts of the antivirus application are available, “galma” is on the right place. You may well have become infected with the virus, and more than one.

The best option would be to check your computer for viruses with any current antivirus with updated databases. In one of the articles earlier, I pointed out the best for the beginning of 2016:

Before speaking, the antivirus shows good results, which is not necessarily easy to install. Just download and check it out.

Otherwise, I recommend checking your computer for additional help or flash drives (so called Live CD). If you haven’t tried it many times, I’ll say: you will get a ready-made operating system from a CD (flash drive), including an antivirus. Before speech, you may have a sound in it. If so, then most likely you have problems with Windows and you may end up with...

7. Renewal of sound, as it doesn’t help anything

Here I will do some good, maybe I can help you.

1) If you previously had a sound, but now you don’t, you may have installed some driver programs that caused a hardware conflict. Well, let’s try this option.

2) If you have another sound card or other speakers, try connecting them to the computer and reinstalling the drivers on them (including the driver system on the old device that you connected).

3) If all the previous points did not help, you can reject it. Then you will immediately install the sound drivers and if the sound will appear, be sure to follow it carefully after installing the program. Please note that everything is at fault: the driver or the program that previously conflicted.

4) As an option, instead of speakers, connect headphones (instead of headphones - speakers). It is possible to become violent and become a fool.

It happens that when you turn on your PC, you notice that there is no sound on the computer. Just yesterday you were listening to music, watching movies, playing games, and everything was normal. So let's figure out why this happened. Guess right now what kind of computer you used with your loved ones when you were out today.

If this is the case, then ask, so that you don’t mind the stench at the cleaning stations. Sometimes the sound may occur for the same reason, you need to carefully “tweak” the PC settings. This is mainly about small children who, in their ignorance, can “do miracles.” And yet, let’s not do any magic, but let’s move on to the truth and look at all the possible reasons for your PC’s failure.

Why doesn't sound work on my computer?

There are a number of broader reasons, one of which is a problem with installed drivers - either a bug or a fire. To go to this, right-click on the “My Computer” icon, which is located on the desktop in the upper left corner. From the list, select the item "Power". In the window, click the “Accessories” tab, then “Device Manager”. Then you need to click on the item “Sound, video and game devices”. Well, now pay attention to the icons that will appear opposite the skin row. If there will be images of the same power supply signs, it means that you are on the right track - the drivers of the device, which is responsible for the sound, are either faulty or operating incorrectly. "

How can you solve the problem?" - you ask. It’s very simple - reinstall the drivers, they must come bundled with your computer. If you don’t have any reasons for them, don’t worry - just click on one of the yellow power signs with the right mouse button If the Internet is connected, the drivers are automatically reinstalled, and this is the main reason why sound is not working on the computer. In this case, try connecting headphones and playing some kind of song or just clicking the bear. that means The problem lies in a possible malfunction of the speakers.Return to all plugs and wires. The computer and through the headphone connections, then, after all, the sound card has gone wrong, in which case you yourself will not do anything, especially in Bring PC to service center.

Doesn't produce sound on the computer. What is it timid?

Another broader reason may be a trivial emphasis on sound. To make it more meaningful, just add some thickness. For whom:

2. In the window under the “Sound” row, click “Adjustment of volume”. Here, turn it over so that the strap is in the upper position, if that’s not the case, just put it back in place, rubbing it with the bear. Well, let’s just forgive the methods, you now know what to do in these situations, if you don’t produce sound on your computer.

Computers have long since ceased to engage in vikorism inclusively for any calculations. Lots of people watch videos, listen to audio recordings and play a variety of games on their PC. Sometimes, for a variety of reasons, this problem may arise as a “sound problem.” This instruction will look at the broadest causes, through which we know the sound and identify the ways of solving the problem. Why bother?

Reason

The problem with sound depends on a number of factors, which can be divided into two categories – problems with leakage (headphones, speakers) or problems with software. First, let’s take a look at the variants of problems from the first group.

Reason #1: Speakers, headphones and other sound devices

One of the most common options is a breakdown of the speakers or a problem with their connections. To put it in, you need to check:

1. The device is securely connected to the outlet;
2. It is not set to zero.

Also, if possible, you can check how the speakers operate on another or any device to which they can be connected.

Reason 2: The sound card is not working

Another reason for the loss of sound may be a simple malfunction of the sound card. Before you can replace them, you need to first disable all problems in the software that you will encounter later.

Reason 3: Adjusting the system

Before that, if you look for reasons in deep adjustments, check that the sound is not turned off in the Windows control panel. What is needed for:

1. Click on the end of the speaker in the system tray next to the anniversary.
2. A small window will open where you can adjust the volume, and you can also turn the sound back on. If the speaker is crossed, press on the speaker and the sound will appear.
3. It is also possible that the crossing of the groups does not appear, but the sound is still mute. In this case, turn the volume control over and set it to the top position.

Reason 4: The driver will be added

The absence of sound may be caused by software problems, which indicates a stable operation. It may not function properly or be completely out of order. To fix this problem, you need to download the drivers from the adapter manufacturer's website or from the integrated version. Once installed, install them with the help of an installer.

You can reinstall the driver in this way:

1. Close menu "Start" and go to .
   
2. Select in the new window.
   
3. After whom to press "Device Manager" .
   
4. You can also use this section without any problems by entering the command in the window "Viconati" , which is revealed by the pressure of the keyboard combination "Win+R" .
   
5. Then open the item “Sound, video and game devices” .
6. A list will appear where your sound card will be displayed. By clicking on the context menu, you need to select the item “Onoviti drivers...” .
7. Then you will have two options - automatic search or installing a driver from the local area. If you have not downloaded the sound card software, you can quickly select the first option, or select another, and choose to uninstall the downloaded files.
   
8. Moreover, the card in the dispatcher may be indicated by an arrow. This means that it is turned on and needs to be turned to the working position. To do this, click on it with the right mouse button and select the item "Get busy" .
   

If a “hail” sign is displayed next to the device name, this means that the card is not functioning properly. It is necessary to work in advance:

Windows shows the map again and sets it up.

Reason #5: Service

Also, the reason for the absence of sound may be that a service is enabled, which is indicative of its functioning. To run it you will need:

This section can also be used directly by entering the command services.msc at the window "Viconati" .

The service will request and the sound will appear.

Other reasons and ways to eliminate them

Another reason for the lack of sound could be a virus. Such a crisis can be helped by providers such as Doctor Web. If you do not understand from the methods described above, and you believe that the reason for the lack of sound is not due to the computer, you can try to restore the system at a different update point.

Well, finally, you can resort to the most radical options, such as replacing the card itself, but you will need to work in the remaining situation, if other options did not help you.

Yak buti, yakshcho ? With such a problem associated with the lack of sound on my computer, I think that every single PC has encountered it. I’m keeping you, dear readers, in my sights!

In this article, I would like to pay special attention to the problem associated with the lack of sound on a computer, and more precisely, we will look at the most obvious reasons for this on our computer. the sound disappears and, of course, we have to learn to wear it out on our own Vinyl problems.

First of all, I would like to point out that the problem of the lack of sound on the computer will remain, and will be deprived of an even great topic for discussion on the Internet. It’s no secret that the secret principle of updating sound in a computer comes down to the fact that you will need to check (verify) a number of song actions that will be directly related to updating sound.

Moreover, it doesn’t matter if you visit another customer, even if the customer has to spend almost an hour troubleshooting problems related to the sound problems in the computer. However, as if you are still alive, you don’t have enough evidence to correct this type of malfunction? In the literal meaning of the word, we can say that you just bought a computer for yourself a few days ago and are starting to master it, and then BAM sound on the computer.

In this case, so that you can understand the reason yourself and put it on your own, today’s article will be not only boring for you, but rather basic, even if you know a lot of useful information. Well, let's go?

There is no sound on the computer

So, when you turn on the computer, you see that there is no sound on the computer, and you immediately ask why there is no sound on the computer? At the beginning stage of identifying the reason for the absence of sound, it is important for you to know that the absence of sound on a computer can be caused by a malfunction of either the software or the hardware.

Malfunctions in the software part can be caused by a system failure, which can lead to the corruption of system files that are responsible for creating sound. It is also possible to add that the fault in the software part may be incorrect settings of the sound circuits, availability or corruption of the audio driver of the device. Another reason could be components that went wrong (speakers, sound card). So don’t hesitate to read the article:

Well, my dear friends, I encourage you to look step by step at the main reasons that may be causing the lack of sound on your computer. Let us put it firstly, from the simplest.

Croc first. Next, check the liquid on the speakers, and if there is any leakage, remove it. Almost all speaker models are equipped with a light-emitting diode, which lights up when the speakers themselves are turned on.

Also reverse the position of the tension control.

Croc is different. Check that the speaker plug is connected correctly to the computer, the plug must be connected to the output socket (the socket for connecting the speakers is indicated by a green color).

Sometimes it is often noted that actions after preventive maintenance of the computer or, for example, after moving the computer to another room, inadvertently connect the speaker plug all the way to another socket in the computer They either forget to insert the plug.

So you don’t need to rush, finish everything carefully and respectfully, without rushing.

Krok third. Just like the plug from the connection columns, that’s right, as before Then check the speaker status on the settings panel. To do this, click on the speaker icon, as shown in the picture below, and navigate so that the speaker status is active and the volume level is not set to the minimum position.

Croc quarters. At the next stage, you need to reconnect, and if the speakers are turned on, and if the life indicator lights up when the speakers are turned on, then you don’t need to tell us that the sound speakers are up to 100 liters. You can also connect headphones to the computer and check the sound. Please, do not worry and misinterpret the usefulness of the sound speakers on another computer or laptop.

Krok five. It is acceptable that the sound stoppers work well, but there is no sound on the computer. Then, open the task manager and check the status of the audio devices, or rather, check to ensure that the drivers for the audio devices are up to date and not corrupted. In short, all relevant devices are recognized by the system, and the status of the skin device is not subject to signification.

Most likely, if the drivers were corrupted by viruses or malicious programs, it is recommended that you check your computer for viruses before installing the driver.

If your device has such signs of a call opposite the audio device, as shown on the little one, then you should quit installing the driver.

Read the article “” to properly check and scan your computer to detect any corrupt code in the system.

If no viruses were detected, proceed to installing the driver. You can find the drivers on the disk, which in most cases comes with the sound or motherboard. You can also install the driver using the additional ID-ownership code. You can find out how to install the driver behind the device code by reading my article:

and the status “device is operating normally” is displayed in the “Games” tab

Then you need to quickly use the standard diagnostic method available in the Windows 7 operating system.

In some cases, problems with sound may be directly traceable to the diagnostic tool itself. Open the panel, then go to “System and Security” => “Support Center” => “Troubleshooting”.

At the window press “Owned and sound”

And select “Made with sound”.

Then a window will open in which you will need to run diagnostics by pressing the “Next” button. If any malfunctions are detected during the diagnostic process, a list of detected and corrected malfunctions will be presented in the corresponding window after the diagnostics is completed.

Krok somiy. I have once sound on the computer For the same simple reason, all devices are connected. Therefore, it is imperative to check whether the sound devices in the “Connected Sound” panel are installed. To do this, you need to press the right mouse button on the speaker icon, which is located in the lower right corner of the camera panel, and select “Creation devices” in the menu.

In the “Sound” tab, in the “Creation” tab, the device status is indicated by a green check mark, as shown in the picture below

If the tab that has opened does not display the devices you created, then right-click on the large part of the space and click “Show connected devices” in the menu.

At this point, disabled devices will appear, which can be closed by clicking on them with the right mouse button in the context menu and selecting “Minding”.

As a result, the status of the device will be indicated by a green tick. You will not be able to save the Wikonan procedure by pressing the “Set” and “OK” buttons.

Krok eighth. If, as a result of extensive operations, there is no sound on the computer, then it will be time to check the correct settings in the computer’s BIOS. I can’t tell you how to go into the BIOS of your computer, because I already learned from the statistics:

The only thing I would like to add is that you will need to make sure that the High Definition Audio parameter is in the Advanced tab. Use pre-school literature on your computer your motherboard), then the “Enabled” value was set. Then reinstall your computer and change the sound on the system.

Krok 9th. One of my acquaintances was desperate to improve the sound on his computer, and in his words, the sound on the computer began to rise after installing a special program to improve the clarity of the sound, as he downloaded from the Internet. Having analyzed the situation and checked that the sound in the system was disabled in the program part, I found that the sound was disabled by the Windows service. And all this is due to the fact that the program, which wanted to install my knowledge, did not install quite correctly in Windows and caused problems and conflicts.

So one of the reasons for the loss of sound may be due to various troublesome programs.

If you hear sound after installing a program, you should think about removing those programs. I also recommend that you make sure that the Windows Audio service is turned on. You can verify this in this way. Click on the “Start” button and enter “Services” in the search row, then left-click on the found values, as shown in the little picture below.

Now from the “Services” window that opens, go to the “Windows Audio” service.

In the “Zagalni” tab, the startup type is “Automatic”, and the mode is “Practice”.

If the service is disabled, you need to close it, save your settings and restart your computer.

Krok tenth. At which point you should install a different sound card, since it is entirely possible that your sound card has gone wrong. Before installing a sound card, perform preventive maintenance on your computer, an operation that is essential and necessary for stable and correct operation of the computer. It is increasingly possible that the sound will appear after the end of preventive work. In the article "" You learn about the nuances that need to be taken care of when cleaning your computer.

Krok eleven. Now, since you have everything to do, and you have tried all the things I have suggested, then you can try to turn the system to the front behind the previously created control points. If you don’t understand what I’m talking about, then read these two articles:

It is also possible that you have sound on your computer through the removal of a system file by you, which serves as a sound support for the file. Therefore, bringing the system back to normal in some situations helps to eliminate problems during the hour of working at the computer.

At the end of today’s article, I assure you that the information presented in this lesson was required for you and you received the best recommendations. I’ll tell you that if you want to stay up to date with new articles, then fill out.

Well, I would finally like to ask you what other problems related to the lack of sound have you encountered?

Good luck to everyone regarding the upcoming statistics =>

Updated – 2017-02-14

Do you know the sound on your computer? And God knows. This problem occurs often. And the most unacceptable are those that show such unacceptability at an unexpected moment, and even when it is necessary to listen. Many people start to panic, twist the cords of speakers or headphones, unplug and re-insert the plugs into the sockets. But the problem most often does not exist. Let's look at the most important steps in order to resolve this problem.

The first thing you need to do is to check that your device is connected to the necessary plugs and sockets, and for that purpose.

Check your speakers and headphones first.

If you have pets, it is possible that the stench could harm them.

I, for example, already love grizzly darts. I drink all of them so that I can’t get to them, but for days I wasted my drink and went literally one step into the kitchen.

She turned around and sat down at the computer, put on her headset to continue her conversation with her friend, and...

I’m watching on the monitor screen, as it seems, but my headphones are deaf, like a tank. I marveled at my cat with suspicion, and I ordered the processor to sleep with the look of a little baby.

I started checking the darts, and the stench was bitten in several places. And what if the reptile overtook you? Our sunbath was covered with a haze. The next day I had to go and buy a new headset. Just because of all the oddities, I bought two at a time.

• All headphones or computer devices are connected with a green plug.

• We put it on the sound card of the computer, also in a green color.

• Whether a laptop or an old-fashioned computer, all colors can be the same color - either black or silver. Then you need to pay attention to the instructions opposite the rose. Laptops have small, painted headphones.
• The speakers can be additionally connected to a 220 V outlet.
• Turn the volume control on speakers that are not set to minimum. It is best to set it to the middle value.

Since this is all right, it’s a good idea to check your speakers or headphones on another computer.

Let's check that we have the service enabled WindowsAudio .

• Vidkryvaemo – Start – Viconati .

• There are buttons in the row opposite Look around write a command services.msc, as the window screams Services .

• Find it at the column I'm service WindowsAudio turn it around in column Mill chi pratsyuє wona.
• As it is written Pratsyuє Well, everything with the service is fine.
• If nothing is written, then the two people click on the record of this service and at the end of what appears, on the deposit Zagalni in the panel Mill press the button Start, and don’t forget to save everything with the button OK .

Any voltage slash will provoke you Turn on sound on your computer.

What do you have Services everything is included, which means that the adjustment of sound devices is checked.

• At the very bottom of the work table, the right-hander is at the third, we find the speaker icon and click on it.

• Let's check that the remixer (check mark) is opposite the Vimk entry, and don't lower the button to the bottom, then. Thickness is at a minimum.
• If it stands, then we understand it. The sound may appear.
• If you do not have a volume regulator in three icons, then read the article

If everything is fine with the volume control, but there is no sound, then right-click on the sound volume control icon and in the menu that appears, select Adjusting audio parameters .

• At the window Power: Sounds and audio devices on deposit Huchness turn it over or not check the box on the entry Turn up the sound . If it’s worth it, then take it.
• Marvel Mixer volume . Do not set the regulator to minimum.

Click on all the buttons Dodatkovo And check that it is not connected there now.

If it is wet, soak it.

Since nothing helped, then

• let's go to The power of the system , and check whether the driver is installed on the sound card.

• Go to the tab Obladnannya – Device Manager .

• At the window Device Managers Turn it over, there is no sign of a hail in the yellow circle opposite the sound devices. Otherwise, it’s best to reinstall the sound card driver.

I have such an icon on the device, which is not placed before the sound ones. In a normally functioning system, there are no signs (no one is asking or calling).

Note

Sometimes, when installing any new programs or due to a minor voltage cut, the driver may be damaged. Then you need to reinstall it.

Well, we checked out the possible reasons for the loss of sound on a computer.
