Apparently, my Windows PC has decided it’s allergic to sound. The speakers work on everything except my computer, which now believes silence is golden-except when it randomly plays the “Device Connected” sound just to keep me guessing.
Tried all the classics: updated drivers, unplugged and re-plugged cables like a mad scientist, checked volume settings… even sacrificed a USB stick to the gods of troubleshooting. Sound troubleshooter says “everything is fine”-which gives me about as much reassurance as Clippy used to.
Anyone else living in this high-stakes mime performance? Any brilliant fixes before I buy a megaphone and start narrating my desktop’s actions out loud?
