I have solved the sound issue. Sound needed enabled in bios. Spelling came up when sound crashed. A box came up saying "weather applet crashed". I thought it meant there was an applet called weather. If spelt correctly "whether" I would not have made that error. Minor point I know and imagine very difficult to correct.
