I have a laptop INSPIRON 1501 and have been having problem with the sound for quite some time. When I watch movies, the sound is there. When I skype, I can hear but the other party doesn't hear what I say. Skype can't detect the sound card.
What I have done so far:
I went to CONTROL PANEL, then DEVICE MANAGER, OTHER DEVICES. There I have only one option BASE SYSTEM DEVICE with a yellow sign. I right-clicked Properties, then under GENERAL clicked REINSTALL DRIVER but Windows couldn't find driver software.
Also I tried SOUND, VIDEO and GAME CONTROLLERS option under DEVICE MANAGER. There is only one option HIGH DEFINITION AUDIO DEVICE and it's not marked.
Any tips what I could do to install/find the sound card.
Thanks for all your tips beforehand.
