Soundcard failure?
I've had repeated problems with losing sound on my laptop, for the past few months. I've corrected it by putting it into stand-by mode, then re-starting, which seemed to have "resolved" the problem. Now it doesn't! Any ideas? Is the sound card the problem? It's a basic Dell laptop about 7 years old, Thanks for the help.
