I have no sound on media players no matter what I try to do. No I don't have mute on and no I don't have my audio turned down. I know that it's just the media players as else where the sounds are playing. Can you help me? I am using Windows Media 10 and Media Player Classic and both of them don't work.

I have the same problem from time to time. I put it down to Windows interfacing with the sound card. Just reboot your computer and it goes away.

It doesn't it's been like this for 3 days now.

First of all, check this problem isn't that your speakers are broken in some way by using them on a TV or just plug some headphones into your computer, if they work, you know it's the speakers. If none of that works;

Look up your soundcard, you can get the model number from using this software.
Then look up the drivers, download them and install them. Then reboot your computer.

No, please read my post before trying to help me. The sound only doesn't work on Media Players.

I have read your post.
Media Player relies on your sound card to work. Therefore you should try what I said

Why would my other sounds work if my sound card needed upated drivers?

different codecs and running files

Loads of things use your sound card to process sounds. There's loads of different streams that can be sent to your sound card. Everything has slightly different ways of interfacing with your sound card to get an output and render media.
Media Player (both the moded classic and the new one) have ways of doing this. So Media Player may not be interfacing with your sound card correctly...and like many of these types of problems updating assures full compatibility.

Windows say that all my drivers are updated and it can't find any new versions of the drivers. The sound still does not work. I find that goldwave can play aduio no trouble though.
