does anyone else have their wave volume strangely turning itself down every so often. starting to annoy me

[spiely]

It's never happened to me before, then yesterday i had no sound. I thought my speakers had gone, till i read your email and checked my wave volume settings. It was turned to minimum. Strange.

Thanks, anyways Nathan, you've stopped me buying some new speakers.
