Speakers stopped working

go to control panel then to sound, double check and see which of your audio components is set as primary output. it's possible that it has changed. if you go to device manager in control panel you can see what type of sound card you have installed. make sure it is set to primary. also if you have multiple audio jacks on the back of the machine make sure that you have the jack plugged into the green plug.

Recently installed windows seven and the sound stopped working. Any idea why? Acer Aspire AST180-UD400A

Try going into your device manager in control panel and removing the driver for your sound card and then let windows 7 reinstall it.

If that dosen't work, you will have to contact acer for an updated driver.
