themuse1969 Posted September 14, 2011 Share Posted September 14, 2011 Most all day Monday I listened to a You Tube playlist through pc speakers. Tuesday, no sound. I checked all settings in "Sounds & Audio Devices" on Control Panel. I un- and re-installed Adobe Flashplayer. No change. There's hiss-crackle in speakers so I know they are powered up. But no program audio. I did Skype audio test on headset--works find. I did test again with listen only of speakers--no program sound. Don't know what to do next.

themuse1969 Posted September 14, 2011 Author Share Posted September 14, 2011 (edited) korp khun na khrab Mark. Not silly at all! I will try it. Last night, I tried uninstall and reinstall of Real Tec drivers. I'm stuck, needing the RtkHDAud.sys file to complete the installation. If anyone has this file (it would be located on your Realtek HD Audio Installation Disk, it could be emailed to me. My address is (my name)@yahoo.com. Korp khun na khrab, KevJohn.

longball53098 Posted September 15, 2011 Share Posted September 15, 2011 This may sound silly but the headphone jack is a mechanical connection that cuts off the speakers when you plug in the headphones(at least on my PC). This jack has contacts that must make/break and are subject to corrosion. Is it possible this connection is not working when the headphones are removed? Maybe try plugging/unplugging the headphones a few times to cause the jacks contacts to make/remake again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
themuse1969 Posted September 15, 2011 Author Share Posted September 15, 2011 (edited) korp khun na khrab, Longball. Not silly at all! But, I cannot try it until I reinstall drivers, for which I need the RtkHDAud.sys file from Realtech HD Audio Installation Disk....that I don't have on hand. I'm hoping someone could email it to me, someone with the same audio system. I might have to go into the city to some computer shops looking for this Disk.

Gregory Morozov Posted September 15, 2011 Share Posted September 15, 2011 The Realtek driver can be downloaded from www.realtek.com.tw Choose HD drivers and operating system in their download area. They are pretty much universal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
