Windows Media Player 9 is on my computer and I’m trying to connect to a radio show. The Media Player shows that something is Now Playing, but I can’t hear anything and nothing happens when I adjust the slide at the lower left corner of the screen. How do I turn on the sound? |
A.
With Windows Media Player open, click on Play then Volume. The default setting is Mute. Click on Up on the menu. This will turn on the sound and you will then be able to adjust the volume with the slide. If you want to Mute the sound again when the phone rings or someone needs attention click on Play > Volume > Mute.

| A. Once you have logged in, follow the path Start > Control Panel > User Accounts and click on your account name.
