SOURCE: Computer turns off by itself

I have a toshiba laptop which was unexpectedly switching off. The laptop was 2 years old. I did lots of searching online to discover this is a VERY COMMON ISSUE. The problem is, dust blocks the heatsink. When I took my computer to pieces, I found a strip of dust half an inch (1cm) thick covering the back of the heatsink which prevented air flow. If your laptop is a couple of years old, this could be the problem. When I removed this dust, the problem disappeared. If you are computer savvy, then try the following - if not, take it down to a computer shop! 1) Remove the 5 screws holding down the heat sink cover and processor cover. These are on the bottom of the laptop, in the centre, at the back. 2) Remove the 3 screws which hold in the heat sink in place. 3) Remove the heatsink 4) Take the dust out 5) Re-assemble a note: be careful not to get dust in the thermal paste on the cpu - unless you have replacement paste. Good Luck!

SOURCE: help

sounds like you have an intermittent problem with your AC adaptor or dc input jack. Does the light on the AC adaptor light up when you plug it in? If it does then your dc input jack may be faulty. If the light on the ac adaptor does not light then replace the ac adaptor. Good Luck!

SOURCE: my husband laptop is a few years old.When he turns it on to read email or games.It has a talk show or something on there.He has to mute the volume so he can read.Any ideas ?

click start control panel sounds and audio devices select advanced might place a tick in the mute box then untick it after he has read his email

or he might just turn the volume down
right click on the speaker icon in the bottom toolbar select volume mixer there you can adjust the volume

this will differ depending on the operating system


hope it helps

How do I turn the volume up when it won't turn up with volume control?

If you hold the power button down a menu pops up - the last option is for mute/unmute. Make sure this is not set to mute.
If this doesn't help, it could be that some app you are running is muting the sound. Close all apps and see if that helps. Power off/on and see if that helps. If you do determine it is an app that's causing the problem, add a comment about it in the Play Store so the developers will know and hopefully fix it.

Sound gets muted on its own,volume goes up & down automatically

As far as I know, it has a sensitive volume control, so sometimes the user touch that area by accident.

I have a dell laptop - inspiron 1564. i am getting noise through the speakers from the onboard microphone. How can i turn it off with out muting.

open the audio properties box by right clicking on your volume control and selecting the properties choice
where it lists all the devices, turn the volume level for the microphone all the way down. if that still does not cure the problem, then mute just the microphone by itself, that way the rest of your audio still works.

I have a gateway laptop and some altec lansing multimedia speaker system,, i can here threw them but its not loud and i turned the volume up help please

Okay, here are a few things you can try. Right click your little speaker in the task bar and click on "open volume control". Check to see if the volume of any of the items listed is on mute or turned down too far. If the setting for "PC speakers" is on mute that might be the problem so try adjusting the volume there first.

Mic not working stilllll!

I'm not certain about yours, but my Acer Aspire 5920 has an audio/volume turn button, just under the lip of the laptop, just to the right of center. Even if you un-mute it, if the volume is turned down all the way - the button revolves, so looking a the front, turning it counter-clockwise will turn the volume down to off, and you won't hear a thing, no matter how much you try to un-mute the thing.
So turn that rotating button to the right, to make it louder, after you have un-muted a control panel volume slider and moved it up, and that just might make it work for you.
Good luck!

Verizon phone mute button

Talk about silly. This is the 3rd time typing the solution. (The Terms of Use link wiped it out too.) I had same problem by accidentally setting mute from bluetooth headset. If you have same situation, just turn volume up or down on headset. (Turning volume up or down on cellphone did not help me.) Good Luck,

I'm sure you went to Control Panel, opened device manager, and and checkeck for any yellow checks for your
sound, video and game controllers. If there are none, your system is go. Then go to your audio manager on control panel, and set it up for whatever speaker configuration you have. I have realtec audio manager. This step is a must for configuring—you choose whether your laptop will use its own speaks or use your external speakers—you have to turn off the internal speakers and turn on the external. Did you forget?
