Troubleshooting and problem resolution:

Adjust the Windows volume control — double-click the speaker icon in the lower-right corner of your screen. Ensure that the volume is turned up and that the sound is not muted. Adjust the volume, bass, and treble controls to eliminate distortion.

Reinstall the audio driver.

Disconnect any headphones from the headphone socket — sound from the speakers is automatically disabled when headphones are connected to the computer’s side-panel headphone socket.

Remove and reconnect the HDMI connector, restart the computer, and set the

HDMI as the audio output mode (for example via the control panel).

Note: IdeaCentre Q180 supports HDMI audio and video output. To learn
