The speaker volume on my Dell Inspiron 4150 running XP Home is set to max and I can still barely hear a thing when playing Flash files and other sounds in IE 6. Even files played by Windows Media Player and Real One are too soft with those programs' internal volume controls maxed out as well.
Any ideas on what I can do? Thanks.</font>
Have you checked to see if there is a driver update on the Dell site? Is there a Winodows update that addresses the issue on Microsoft's site? Step 1 should be making sure that you are up to date on all "patches".
