Hi

I've been trying to crack this for 3 days solid and no joy so far - hopefully somebody may have a solution.

For the record I have

Asus L3500H Laptop
Windows 2K
SIS 7012 Audio
Windows Media and Quicktime.

I have run through everything I can think to to solve this

The volume is not muted/low in either windows audio or via the Fn key
No errors in Device Manager - it claims that all is well
Updated driver from Asus - part of the problem?

It may help to know I have installed for diagnostics

Everst
Glary Registery Repair
CCleanup
DirectX Diagnostics tool - USLESS! "press here to test - did you hear a sound? "No" - it gives up---very helpful

From a History point I had sound, it then went to almost a whisper and I then updated to the latest Asus/SIS driver and now no sound at all - Even the headphone jack produces a very quiet mumble.

I've rolled back to what I think was the original driver but still no joy.

Any ideas greatly, greatly appreciated as I am stumped...

Thanks

Chris

Ignore the post below - I AM A FOOL!

For the record the Asus have a physical volume control on the top left of the laptop in addition to the Fn keys - if it's pressed in it is muted without showing on any of the software volume controls...

Thanks anyway
