A computer is a capricious thing, and sometimes, for the purpose of self-defense, it blocks nodes that, in its computer opinion, are not of primary importance. For example, a sound card. However, in order to return everything to its place, you can, for the time being, not go to the workshop, but try to fix the problems yourself.
A universal solution for all occasions is to check your computer for viruses. If the anti-virus databases have not been updated for a long time or are completely absent (and this happens in the hope of a Russian "maybe"), you should familiarize yourself with all modern services that provide reliable protection and choose the best option. Of course, this pleasure is not free, but the subsequent repair or upgrade of the computer will be much more expensive. Purely technical problems are also possible. If, for example, a general cleaning was recently carried out, during which the computer was moved to another corner, then it is possible that the speaker plug came off the system unit, or they were simply disconnected from the network. Checking their connection is a matter of a couple of seconds. Often, sound problems arise due to a failure in the operating system settings. It is worth looking in the Control Panel to see if the Windows Audio service is working properly, and if it is connected at all. In addition, you can check other sound settings or change the speaker configuration in the Control Panel. The sound can periodically turn off even if some task was assigned, which everyone has already safely forgotten. By referring to the "Task Scheduler" and checking the entries, you can quickly ascertain whether this is true or not. systems. Problems can also be in the driver files, which can also be updated by visiting the Microsoft website (www.microsoft.com) or the page of the manufacturer of the sound card or motherboard. The most radical way is to replace the sound card. However, if the sound is built into the motherboard, this is fraught with difficulties. Of course, you may not need to change it, but in this case you will definitely have to contact the service center.
