Question

Sound sometimes hard sometimes soft

Anonymous

Hello all!

This is my first post> I have some problems with my computer.

I have windows 7 professional and a dell computer with 2 screens.

I just set up all today, and already having sound problems.

Processor: intel core i7 cpu 860 @ 2.80ghz 2.80 ghz

Installed memory 8.00gb

System type: 64-bit operating system

Having cheap speakers though, ax210 from dell. (but that shouldnt be a problem, just more ugly sound right?

PROBLEM: when i move the volume control and let is lose it should give a sound, this sound sometimes not appear. And

this sound is sometimes harder or softer on the excact same spot, for excample the highest volume posible, sometimes it gives a softer sound , way softer then normal and sometimes harder , its so annoying. And sometimes it doesnt give a sound at all.

I find out first i had problem when i opened youtube for a sound check, it was very soft, couldnt hear good, and when i go change the volume a couple times it springs suddenly higher.

Please help me. This problem i also had in my last computer from start.

Hope to get some tips!

Thanks guys!
