David, do you know for certain that there is audio on the DVD's. If someone made them and didn't make them correctly the audio may not have been recorded.
Can you take them to a different PC and try them? |

I suspect the DVDs.
Try them on another DVD player.
Do other DVDs work on your Vista system? |

Does audio CD's play OK? and/or a different DVD?
There is a separate volume control for the CD/DVD audio in your volume control panel - check that to make sure it's not muted or that the volume control slider is not in the down (0ff) position.
If audio CD's play OK and there is nothing wrong with the volume control panel, uninstall the DVD drive in the Windows Device Manager, then restart Vista and it will detect and reinstall the drive. That seems to fix a lot of flakey problems. |

Vista sets it's sound to "digital out" by default.
Goto control panel -> hardware & sound -> sound.
At least two things shoul appear: "Speakers" and "Digital Audio Interface."
Select "Speakers" and click "set to default." |

You're welcome.
I'm moving this to the COMPUTERS section.
It might be helpful to someone there in the future. |
