Audio problems Acer 5100-3583

You can try updating your drivers. Go to your control panel and search for "device manager". Then find the audio devices section and click on each of them one at a time and select "search for driver updates". This should help with your problem.

webcam could not be detected, which drivers should be downloaded?

When you connect headphones to your computer the computer will only send sound through the headphones and not allow sound to come out of the speakers. this is the way almost all audio drivers are setup, it detects the speakers and the headphones as 2 different devices and will only play sound through one (headphones first and if there are no headphones then speakers).

The only way I know to resolve this (and I hate this suggestion) is to purchase a headphone splitter. Connect the speakers and the headphones through the splitter, the quality of the splitter will determine the quality of the sound.

You could try going to the audio driver options (if there is any program installed by the audio driver) to see if you can get it to play through both but with both my Acer laptops I have been unsuccessful.

Hope this helps.

I would first try to check for viruses and spyware. This is one of the major causes of sound issues. If everything else is ok with this laptop, then it sounds like your audio card might have a problem. Howver you might also have a problem with your speakers. Try connecting external speakers to you computer. If they work then it's your speakers. You can purchase those online from Ebay.

Try to connect external speaker at your computer, if the audio problems continue, then disable audio driver and reset your computer.

maybe your sound card is defective,buy a new one
