The problem I'm having is that for some reason the maximum volume level of
my system has been greatly diminished (barely audible). This problem has just
started in the last couple of days and I have already checked Windows Media
Player and everything else I can think of. My master volume controls i.e the
different sliders, don't work due to the loss of that capability after a
system restore. The only way I can adjust the volume is with the button on my
keyboard and the volume control within the player.
I would appreciate any and all help.
