Hi i am hoping someone can help me with a problem i have with my laptop. I am not getting any sound and no control on my volume.

Have checked sound controls.tried system restore but still no luck.

The make is a fujitsu.

Any help would be great thanks.

Check in control panel thats its reporting as working- try installing the drivers again.

"Check in control panel thats its reporting as working- try installing the drivers again.

have you recently had any headphones plugged in? i had a similar problem with my Macbook as it has a combined headphone/optical port and it was stuck on optical- just needed a prod with a cocktail stick to free it up"
yes i had headphones in recently il try the cocktail stick first. Not too sure about indtslling drivers maybe you could message me with some info on that. Cheers.

Have you checked the bios ? If it's an on board soundboard it may have been disabled by accident. What version of windows are you using ?

I've not really dabbled with Windows since XP was the hot new thing, probably best to see if there is a help page for your machine or look on a Windows forum if the stick method doesn't work (you can tell if its a dual audio/optical port as it should have a red light inside it if its stuck open)

Do you have Windows 8? I had the same problem after their latest update x
