Hello PC Help!

Hope you can help me here! I'm new to this!

Recently while playing my music I noticed that the sound on my computer had gone all high pitched, something like a chipmunk. The speed of the sound is not altered, just the pitch of the sound.

Is there a setting that sests the pitch and I am missing it?

What can I do?

Hi there and welcome to the site.

If I think of "the chipmunks" then they do kinda sound speeded up....but you're saying high pitched - not speeded up...right? You could try this;

1) Click Start, select Settings and click Control Panel.
2) Double-click the Multimedia or Sounds and Multimedia icon.
3) In the Multimedia Properties window select the Audio tab.
4) Under the Playback heading, click Advanced Properties.
5) Click the Performance tab and record the location of the Hardware Acceleration slide bar.
6) Click the Hardware Acceleration slide bar and keep the mouse button pressed.
7) By moving the mouse, slide the indicator needle to None.
8) Release the mouse button.
9) Click Apply and click OK.
10) Close any open windows and launch the program that the sound issue occurred in.
