Just go to run and type SNDVOL32 in the box and make sure all the levels are up and not muted.

The CMOS probably has nothing to do with this. If your sound is on board, there will probably be an entry in your CMOS Setup program that will Enable or Disable the onboard sound. However, if you didn't manually change that, and everything else is working fine, then thats probably not the issue.

If the SNDVOL32 check doesn't work, and all your wires are plugged in the right places, there is more chance that the sound driver got messed up than anything else. Go into Device Manager and make sure that under Sound,Video & Game Controllers there is nothing with a yellow exclamation mark. If there is, then that item has a problem/missing/screwed up driver.

    • OpenAI slashes o3 price by 80% in direct challenge to Gemini 2.5 Pro by Pradeep Viswanathan Back in April, OpenAI released o3, its flagship reasoning model, which delivered state-of-the-art (SOTA) results on several AI benchmarks, including Codeforces, SWE-bench, and MMMU. The o3 model also included support for external tools, such as web browsing, a Python interpreter, and more. Although o3 was the most powerful model available from OpenAI, it was not widely adopted by developers due to its pricing compared to other alternatives. Google’s Gemini 2.5 Pro model offered nearly the same performance at one-quarter of the cost, while Anthropic’s Claude 3.7 models delivered better coding performance at a similar price. Today, OpenAI is responding to developer feedback by reducing the price of the o3 model by nearly 80%. At launch, the o3 model was priced at $10 per million input tokens and $40 per million output tokens. As of today, OpenAI is lowering the price to $2 per million input tokens and $8 per million output tokens. This price drop makes o3 a much more attractive option for developers. You can refer to the benchmark comparison table below, which Google published last week during the launch of the Gemini 2.5 Pro June update, to see how OpenAI’s o3 compares with other leading models. In addition to the price reduction, OpenAI is also launching o3 Pro, its new flagship reasoning model, later today. The o3 Pro model is expected to outperform the Gemini 2.5 Pro June update on several key AI benchmarks and may be priced at $10 per million input tokens and $40 per million output tokens.
    • From my understanding.... Thunderbolt isn't like USB ... where you can simply plug a couple of TB ports into the header.  The header itself isn't "Thunderbolt" ... the header connects to the add-on Thunderbolt I/O card for management. I'm sure Nik can better articulate...   ...helpful as always...
    • That said, it might be living somewhat dangerously to blindly rename existing *.BAT files to *.CMD, due to differences in ERRORLEVEL handling between the two extensions. See https://ss64.com/nt/errorlevel.html . For new scripts intended only for recent Windows versions, yes, using .CMD is a good idea.
    • And even if you think someone is an idiot, that doesn't mean they can't tell the truth. But I suppose people like BadBot don't care, it wouldn't be the first time he acted like that.
    • Because it was generated with AI (which you have to disclose), it means that you cannot copyright it (only humans get copyright). Which anyone who wants to can just steal your work for whatever reason they want, even selling the same thing on the same site, in China, etc. In short, the user will quickly learn why copyrights exist in the law to protect authors from having their work stolen. So, think about using this despicable pile of AI slop shop as a learning experience.
