Do your speakers have power? Did you turn the mains off for the speakers? In iTunes options, check the sound enhancer and crossfade plyback. Maybe these have changed, try changing the options for them and you might get sound.

Sounds daft, but look and see if the volume slider at the top is not all the way to the left, as this means you'll get no sound either

Weird though, must be an iTunes cock up. I'd reinstall it first to see if that helps.

LOL, ok smarty pants. If his drivers were shite, why would he get sound out of media player and his TV card software, but not from an APPLICATION. Surely, the first thing would be the app itself.

But hey, what would I know, just flying by the seat of my pants

Not taking offence, just engaging in friendly banter. Honestly mate, I do this for a living, and it could be either suggestion. Thats the thing with things like this, you never know, and 9 times out of 10, its something simple anyways. Just the 1 time turns out to be a bastid and I'm betting Rhys got that one time
