Install ALL drivers that apply for your computer.

Exactly, a chipset driver that you don't think applies may apply.

Also make sure that the Windows Audio service is enabled.

Post by: squall_01 on July 29, 2009, 05:15:34 AM: Never said that, I dont know if there is or not. Not sure if it is, I do know that the speaker didnt show in the task bar tray an had to tell it to be there. Its all right but still nothing.

Post by: Carbon Dudeoxide on July 29, 2009, 05:25:54 AM: Reinstall drivers.......or are you too busy for that?
Title: Re: No Sound, Driver is there.
Post by: squall_01 on July 29, 2009, 06:05:53 AM: I'm not going to do a reformatt when the machine has been working well for almost six mths. Its just one driver that I had put in the other day but still nothing.
Title: Re: No Sound, Driver is there.
Post by: Carbon Dudeoxide on July 29, 2009, 06:09:46 AM: Didn't you say you just did a reformat?
Title: Re: No Sound, Driver is there.
Post by: patio on July 29, 2009, 06:10:32 AM: No one is asking you to reformat...
They are however asking that you re-install ALL your drivers.

Post by: squall_01 on July 29, 2009, 06:15:05 AM: Thats what he just said, I put in all the drivers that I had an updates. Thing is that there isnt any sound. Will try something dont think it will change.
Title: Re: No Sound, Driver is there.
Post by: Carbon Dudeoxide on July 29, 2009, 06:23:30 AM: My ONLY advice and my last post in this topic: You had reformatted - so you must reinstall all your drivers.

Good Luck.

Post by: patio on July 29, 2009, 07:14:58 AM: I don't understand why you consistently ask for advice and then ignore it or refuse to even try it...
Title: Re: No Sound, Driver is there.
Post by: squall_01 on July 29, 2009, 07:24:18 AM: cause I have done all that when I finshed the install. Its not me its everyone else that doesnt.
Title: Re: No Sound, Driver is there.

As stated here squall even though you may not be aware of it if the chipset driver is not installed first it may botch up other driver installations.

There.....i'm done here now.

Title: Re: No Sound, Driver is there.
Post by: Carbon Dudeoxide on July 29, 2009, 10:44:38 PM: I have a problem, but there is no problem. If I install problems, it may fix my problem but there is not problem to fix.

Post by: neelchauhan on July 30, 2009, 11:19:55 AM: You should buy a new sound card. Is your sound onboard?
Title: Re: No Sound, Driver is there.
Post by: Carbon Dudeoxide on July 30, 2009, 11:48:42 AM: You have chipset drivers for your computer. Do not install most recent drivers, just reinstall THE drivers.
