Hi Silver, I would suggest perhaps taking it to an instrument shop and seeing what could be done.  It may be that the strings are the wrong gauge for those notes or it could be something to do with the tuners.  A new set of strings might help.  Hope these suggestions help.  Keep with it.  Ben

Hi Silver, and welcome to the wonderful world of the Friends of the Mountain Dulcimer.  It's a good place to come, spend some time, learn about the dulcimer, and to meet some good people.
