No Internal Speakers sound

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.windowsxp.basics (More info?)

I have lost internal-speakers sound on my IBM Thinkpad 600X which had
been working fine for years. However, I do get sound from the earphone
jack.

Obviously, this could be a hardware problem, but I'd like to rundown
possible software causes first.

The built-in troubleshooter doesn't address my condition.

My 600X is a WIN98SE upgraded to WINXP Home Edit.

I don't know how long I've had the problem as I just noticed it
recently. And, I don't know what I may have done to cause it.

Been there; done that.

Note that I get sound with earphones.

Thanks for your suggestions. Any Others?
