Volume turns itself down automatically

by ennea999 . Updated 15 years, 10 months ago

Hi,
I’m running XP Pro SP2 and at least once a day, sometimes more, the sound will turn itself down. I can slide the volume control slider up to max and it will immediately slide back down on its own. I have to reboot to be able to gain control of the volume again (for a few hours until it starts back up).

This computer is not networked, is behind a firewall, has virus protection, and is checked for spyware regularly via several different “cleaner” programs. I bought a new sound card this weekend thinking that would fix it, unloaded all sound drivers, installed the new driver for the new card. Still has the same problem of the volume turning itself down.

Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
-e
