Okay, I reinstalled windows on my PC and my soundcard thingy wasn't installed so I went to the site (E machines) and installed the driver for it, I opened Windows Media player and It plays the audio but no sound. Nothings muted, and all the volume is up. My headphones work, because I tested them in my CD player. heres my specs
