Had an error message yesterday saying 'not enough disk space' when I tried to open Photoshop. Okay, I get a bit carried away with downloading free software I think I might find interesting in the future and so went to my control panel to jettison some of it. But must have inadvertently jetissoned more than I thought as today, no sound from anything! What have I gone and done?

Use a restore point and go back to where it was working.  Try removing them a little at a time and keep restore points so you don't have to back all the way up again.

First, thanks for taking the trouble to reply Could you walk me through it a bit more please? I went into System Restore and the box was checked saying all restoration turned OFF. When I unchecked it, it said I wouldn't be able to track what to restore So I go into System Restore, and ... (Will save me another trip to the computer shop ) Thankyou.

If the box was checked, you are out of luck as you will not have any restore points. If you deleted software for your sound card try to re-install it. I guess you did check that you haven't by accident muted the sound or lowered the volume?

Aaaaach. No. Tried Sounds and Audio Devices 'Properties' - 'No Audio Device'. Guess it's another trip to my friendly computer guy

have you tried to go into a website to download new drivers for your sound.This could be done if you know the manufacturers name of the sound card/hardware.
