if you have the cd's that came with your pc with the device drivers on it, it is just as easy and time saving to remove the soundcard from your list of devices , reboot, let the computer recognize a "new device" and viola, load the driver from the cd after it asks for it.  if you need any further help you can email me  at  cybertoothtyger1999@yahoo.com  good luck

Go to "control panel" & click on add new hardware..\nWindows should detect the loss of the sound drivers & it'll be up again after a restart..\nIf theres still a problem, you should look for any CD'S or Floppy's that came with the computer which might have the audio driver files..\nCheers!

Sound like the drivers are missing or corrupted for these devices. Go to Device manager, delete the devices, and then reinstall them. Also Windows update is known for providing bad updated drivers for sound controllers and just rolling back to the previous driver will fix it.

find the software for your sound card and reinstall the drivers/software... if you don't have a disc, then go to the manufacturer's website and download them from there...

Do you have a sound card installed or are you trying to use onboard sound (from your motherboard)? Is there a listing in Device Manager for Unknown Devices? If so, it may be your sound card, so right click it and update the drivers. \n\nDo you have the same problem when you restart your computer?\n\n\nOk, have you tried placing the sound card into a different PCI slot on the motherboard? If so, and you are not getting any sound and there is no soundcard listed in Device Manager, then you either have a bad sound card or you are having an IRQ conflict, or you (unlikely) have bad PCI slots on the motherboard. I would put my money on a bad sound card as IRQ conflicts are are usually corrected by Windows, but you never know...

Reinstall the driver.  If this doesn't work, open the computer and remove the soundcard from it's port.  This is assuming that it goes tinto an expansion port such as PCI or PCI express.  If it's integrated (built into the motherboard), then you'll need to figure out the model and make of your card (try running DxDiag)and download the drivers.  \n\nThen right-click my computer, and select properties.  Go to the tab called devices and select device manager.  From here, remove the sound card and its drivers and then reboot the system.  Once the system has turned back on reinstall the drivers which you should have downloaded.\n\nHope this helps

Have u tried Pro Tools Free ?  I've heard it exports MIDI files, dont know about other formats. hopefully, it'll work with .wav files, which are easily convertible to .mp3

1. Turn off the computer, fully.   Then restart it and try your music again.\n\n2. If you still don't hear anything, DOUBLE-CLICK on the volume icon and see if ANY slide controls are muted, if there is anything muted, UNMUTE it.\n\n3. If this fails.  Click on Start-programs-control panel-system-hardware-device manager - cllick on "sound, video and game controllers" and make sure all the devices are "recognized" (don't have a yellow question mark) if they do, then right click and ROLL BACK DRIVER \n\n4. Oh!, and please make sure your speakers are: 1. ON  2. plugged in, 3. try a different CD

Do you mean you have reformatted your drive, and reinstalled windows and now theres no sound?  Have you checked the Device manager to see if theres any errors in the sound/multimedia section?

Did you try the "System Restore" feature? This may solve your problem by returning your PC's settings to an earlier date. Did you delete the sound card driver or the sound card itself? Right click on "My Computer" select "properties" then "hardware" then "device manager". Look for your sound card in there to see if it is listed. If so, try to roll back the driver. If not, try the new hardware wizard.

If you have a recovery disc try installing your sound driver again. Go to Control Panel and then Go to Systems. Check what kind of sound card you have.\n\nThen go to http://www.soundcard-drivers.com/ and install the appropriate driver for it.

Make sure that your sound card hardware in your computer is installed correctly. If necessary, re-install the driver for your sound card. If you don't have the driver for your sound card, contact your computer manufacture.

Take your sound card out and make sure your computer still works. Then try putting it back in.

Good day. Check your volume controls. Sometimes some controls may be on mute or may not be chozen in the first place. Start, programs, accessories, entertainment and click volume control. When it comes up, click options and then properties. Cjeck what is ticked off and see if the right mixer device is chozen. U Can click options and then advanced to see if everything is ok. If u go into device manager (Desktop, right click on my computer, click properties, under hardware tab click device manager) and u see ! or ?, drivers are missing. If u see a red X, the device is disabled. Hope this helps. Laterz.
