    I WILL pay some one $20(paypal) who can figure this out!!
    I am good with figuring out computer problems but this one has me stumped!!

    No hardware problems showing in Device Manager
    Windows 7 Home Premium
    1gig Ram

    Problem > No Sound (sorta)

    Story > There is no sound ONLY from the Bottons Above the keyboard Which Beep, IF and only IF you close the lid and wait for the computer to go into sleep mode, WHEN you re-open the lid, There is sound for about 2sec, Until the computer shows the USER LOGIN (Square picture you click to log in)
    If you plug head phones into the computer there is ONLY sound on one side (i think right side) I thought maybe it was a faulty JACK so i Removed the entire board from the front of the computer(unpluged from mother board)
    I had windows Vista on this computer and it was the same!!

    I dont believe this is a driver problem but could be... Everything is un-muted and working. like i said. i GET sound when i first open the notebook

    Also would like to add, This problem started when i unlugged my headphones
    Thks

    First the silly checks. Go into Control Panel -> Sound, and make sure Speakers are selected as default device.

    If it occurred started when you unplugged headphone then its the audio board, the on/off switch got stuck or broken.

    I dont know which model do you have, but the manual services 2 part numbers
    431441-001 (full-featured computer models, includes
    infrared lens) and
    431442-001 (defeatured computer models, does not include
    infrared lens)

    FWIW, try to plug and unplug your headphone again, see if you are lucky :)
