Probably the sound card. Try checking device manager for any big yellow question marks. (right click "my computer", properties, hardware, device manager)


When you say "rebooted ages ago" do you mean restarting the pc or reformatting?

It seems you are missing your audio drivers. Do you know what kind of sound card you have or what brand and model your pc is?

Here is the page with your audio driver on it: http://support.packardbell.com/uk/item/index.php?i=6917190100&ppn=P852002501

Download the file pb_alc650_5320.exe and run it to start the installation.

Report back and let us know if you have any trouble or if it works :)

Can you check your device manager again and see if anything has changed?

Glad it worked for ya :)

Go into sounds and audio devices in your control panel and on the volume tab there is a checkbox for placing the icon in your system tray. (If you don't use classic view in your control panel, go here for the instructions: http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/using/setup/tips/volume.mspx )
