Low Sound Volume on my computer

October 13, 2008

I noticed that I have a rather low sound volume on my Dell Computer. I

it was better than that in the past.

I have to jack up the volume on the speakers to the highest levels to

achieve normal sound level which leads to me hearing static and noise.

That is true for web videos as well as sound files playback on my

computer.

I made sure all the volume sliders are at the Max on the Windows

Volume Control box (including Wave). I checked the Control Panel-

>Sound And Audio Devices Properties. Device volume and Speaker volumes

are at High. Sound Playback is set to "SoundMAX Digial Audio" - the

only other option is Model Line Playback.

I have Dell Dimension 4550 with Windows XP (the comp is about 5 years

old)

Any thoughts?

any DVD player software usually reduces the volume, what app are you

running your sound with? Close all DVD apps and it magically will go

louder....

I don't even have a DVD player on this computer, just a CD player.
