The side volume/mute buttons do not work on my logitech n700 laptop desk, but the fan is working ok ...can anybody tell me why im having this problem with the side buttons please ?....

The mute button is noting more than an on/off switch that electronically disconnects or blocks the sound signal temporarily. If both the Mute and Volume controls won't function then you have a power amp dysfunction to the speakers. Go to Tiger Direct on the internet and get a replacement system from the refurbished section at a good price.

I had this same problem and it was due to their instructions which do not adequately explain the setup procedure.

On my own, I was successful in programming volume up but that was all. I assumed that for volume down I would hold the power button and the VOLUME DOWN button and wait for the flashing light just as I had for volume up. Problem is, you never get a flashing light.

Today, I spoke with a rep from Boston Acoustics who patiently explained that step one of the instructions has to be done the same way each time as it is the step that puts the soundbar into programming mode.

It is only at step 2 that things change.

The solution is to hold the power button and the Volume Up button every time in order to get the system into programming mode. Once the light is flashing, in order to program Volume Down, you then hold the Volume Down button until the light goes solid. Once the light goes solid, then press the volume down button on your remote 4 times slowly. Works like a charm.

Works the same way to program the mute button. Follow step one to get the unit in programming mode. Once the light is flashing, hold down only the mute button until the light goes solid. When the light goes solid, press the mute button slowly 4 times.


OBTW, this was programmed with a Logitech Harmony 650 remote unit.

the speakers plug/outlet is usually at the back of the computer you will have to open up the computer to check the lead attached to the rear of the input plug make sure the connection is good
try cleaning your computer of dust using a fine air blower from a compressor making VERY sure that there is no MOISTURE in the air line specifically around the CPU central processing unit and your sound card dust causes static to build up in a computer causing it to overheat any many other problems
hope this helps

Try shutting down your computer before you plug in your USB. As you may have a surge problem. Then plug in your N700, if this doesnt work You may have to goto PC world or your local PC dealer and ask them. Hope this helps.

Several possibilities:

1. You may have inadvertently muted your microphone.

2. You may have multiple devices identified as the microphone, so that might be causing a conflict.

Multiple ways these might be fixed:
1. If you have a media-controller keyboard, look for a mute / unmute button there to see if that helps.

2. Alternately, open the Control Panel and open up the Sounds category. Navigate to the Recording tab and ensure you have identified the proper device.

3. Ensure your volume control utility for Recording has not checked Mute on the microphone.

Guessing you are using Microsoft product. Open the Control Panel
