Headphones don't seem to work on computer, how do I?

check to see what's wrong and why there is no sound. Is there a way to fix it. I tired just plugging in the headphones in, didn't work, tired a different set of headphones, didn't work, still no sound, I tired plugging in the back and still nothing. Am I suppose to download something? How do I check this and get it working?

Answer:
First thing to check is the volume... duh you probably tried that. Go to the volume control and make sure the wave sound bar is all the way up. Sometimes windows reduces this for some reason.
The next thing you should try is to make sure you audio services are running on your computer. You can find this by going to Control Panel then administrator tools, then services, and finally scroll down to Windows Audio and make sure that its status is set to started. If it is not then right click it and start it.
If that does not work then go to the control panel and open the sounds and audio devices control. If there is no sound device detected then something is wrong with your hardware and it needs to be replaced or fixed.
