Hello,
I have a problem with the volume on my computer dropping down to zero (as shown on the speaker icon in the bottom right hand corner). When I click on the speaker icon the graphic equaliser is moving up and down but the slider has dropped down. I can listen to music (using iTunes) for a while and then the voume suddenly goes down. If I go straight to the volume slider and lift it up again as soon as I release it it drops again. Sometimes I can listen for quite awhile and other times it happens very quickly. I don't know whether it does it with the Windows Media player because all my music is in the Apple format (I forget the extension name) and I would have to rip it all again in to the Media Player. If anybody has any thoughts on why this is happening I would be very grateful. It is not a serious problem but it is incredibly annoying.
Thanks in advance,
Matthew
