Hello! If you could help me resolve this, I would be a happy girl!! I have researched and read for DAYS now, and can't find an answer to my problem. I HAD sound, had the lower volume thing occur, and now have NO sound!! I have read many of the posts concerning IRQ's (here and elsewhere) and read much about how to 'change' an IRQ (which I tried), but not how to delete/remove an IRQ. Is this not possible to do then? When I uninstall the MPU, it uninstalls BOTH entries - not just the one! Then I must System Restore to get it back. Disabling just the one, disables them both also. It also has the MPU under Forced Device.... a result of when I tried to change the IRQ? But if someone could tell me what to do about this issue, I would greatly appreciate it!! I want my sound back!!
P.S. I got the computer used and have NO cd's or such, but I am registered with Genuine Advantage and all is valid. If I need to reinstall the entire thing, or something, is there somewhere to get the stuff I'd need (for free) that I don't have since I got it used? I don't know if it's OEM or not, either, or any other stuff! I'm very much a beginner at all of this! It's my first computer. Oh! And it says that the driver for it is working fine and there are no conflicts... When I test the sound, (choosing the Asterisk thing) I hear nothing. When I test on microphone the thing moves as though it's working and says that it is working and others can hear me on the other end, but I can't hear them! Let's see.. I'm not sure what else I should put to give you all of the data you'd need! I'm unsure if I even need to worry about this IRQ thing, but the troubleshooter says I shouldn't have it on there twice. Also, the list below shows that it's on #9, but in the Set Config Manually part on the Properties box, it says #7!! I think that's all. If you need more info, please let me know!!
