Lenovo Laptop Sound Cuts On/Off

[juliaock]

My laptop sound keeps cutting on/off during videos. If I pause a video for longer than 30 seconds - 1 minute, the sound doesn't play and it's really starting to irritate me. This has happened before, but the sound went bak to normal after a day or two.
I don't know why this is happening because my laptop is up to date on Google Chrome and was just recently updated. I have Windows 8, but I don't think that's the problem
UPDATE: I just went to youtube and my laptop is working perfectly fine -_-

Might be audio drivers need update - check manufacturer website - support - download - audio drivers.


Laptop - couple of years old - blanket of dust inside - heat building up inside - may need cleaning.

Could test temps somewhat with HWInfo (hwinfo.com).

Check youtube for videos about cleaning inside laptop.
