Help!! No sound on my laptop?!?

Question

My sound on my laptop is in full working order. All the settings under control panel are ok and I can do the configure test and everything is fine. BUT when I try and play a DVD there is no sound? Does anyone know how to resolve this? I really want to watch my DVD!! I thought it was something to do with the dvd settings but they are all set to high too? I am totally stuck.
Thanks
Helen

Answer 1

The app that is running your dvd i.e.powerdvd, media player, etc is not configured correctly. Tweak the settings or reinstall.

Try a different app to run the dvd



Good Luck

Answer 2

Just try playing some sample music from your computer everything is ok. Then try reloading DVD.

Answer 3

Is it an old computer? If yes, and you have been "blasting" sound out of it for quite some time now, then the sound card is shot. If no, and it's a new computer, then I don't know. One way to check if its the sound card, is to plug in a pair of headsets and see if it plays from them.

Answer 4

I recommend you to try with other DVD and also reinstall the application or use other application for playing DVD.

Answer 5

Have you tried restarting your laptop and also are you sure that the DVD is good quality?

Answer 6

maybe your laptop do not have the necessary codec for the audio file of your dvd..try installing k-lite codec pack at filehippo.com
