    Hey,

    I've been having some problems with volume on my vaio VGN CR 11S L. When I turn on sometimes I have volume and sometimes I don't. Sometimes the volume will be around for a while and then suddenly dissapear. It's totally perplexing, anyone have any advice or support regarding such a problem.

    ANy help would be appreciated

    Try to reinstall drivers, else it might be hardware problem. If its still under warranty, better contact Sony tech.

    go to device manager, remove the audio driver for the card, reboot and windows will reinstall it.
