I have a Dell laptop computer with No. 11 windows. Unfortunately I dont know what happened but a few months back the sound disappeared and have tried unsuccessfully to get it back! Can you offer any solutions please?
Thank you.

Go into setting try and find microphone or sound setting and enable it, if not ask Google it will surprise you how much Google can help with its suggestions

Depends on the spec of your pc if its old or low spec better to renew the machine for a higher spec, processor speed and ram being the most important, SSD will boot faster and may run marginally faster.
I used to build my own machines but my last couple of machines I bought its cheaper and easier found these guys very good have used them for years for parts.

I don't know if this is allowed, but I am running a promotion in the Birmingham and West Midlands area for over fifties, where I will go to their home thoroughly check a PC or laptop for virus, Trojans and identity theft loggers. If necessary clean the machine, supply and install anti-virus, firewall and a maintenance programme for a one off subsidised fee of £50.

I can be contacted through the web site at https://www.speeednet.co.uk or if you fancy having a go yourself, there are plenty of tools and guides on the self help page.

If you contact me be sure and mention it is through the SilverSurfers site.
