Download "EVEREST Home Edition 2.20" from http://www.softpedia.com/progDownload/EVEREST-Home-Edition-Download-16369.html. Run the application. Open  multimedia and click on PCI/PnP Audio. Note the description of the device and serach its driver in Google. The second option is to go to "http://downloadfinder.intel.com/scripts-df-external/Product_Filter.aspx?ProductID=1704" site which is the intel site for your motherboard's drivers. Select the operating system and select the audio driver and download it. It is probably " http://downloadfinder.intel.com/scripts-df-external/Detail_Desc.aspx?agr=N&ProductID=1704&DwnldID=8198&strOSs=44&OSFullName=Windows* XP Professional&lang=eng" site.

either you have no sound card, or the drivers for your sound card aren't installed (properly)...\n\nif you have any driver installation cd (that came with your pc or sound card) you need to use it to install the audio drivers. \n\nif you have no disc, go to the website of the sound card manufacturer and download drivers from there.\n\nif you have a motherboard with integrated sound, but no drivers, then go to the mobo manufacturer site and download from there.\n\nif you have no sound card at all, you will need to buy one!

Since the sound was working at one point we can only assume that in some manner the soundcard's drivers have been uninstalled or corrutted. Goto CONTROL PANEL. In CONTROL PANLE SWITCH TO CLASSIC VIEW and open up SYSEM (Or Right click on MY COMPUTER and select PROPERTIES).\n\nClick the HARDWARE tab on the window that appears and then click the DEVICE MANAGER button. If there is an yellow exclimation point next to an unknown item, or in an item under sound , video and game controllers then the driver is corrupted or missing.\n\nIf you are making use of onboard sound you should be able to find the driver at the website of your motherboard manufacturer. If you have the cd that came with your motherboard you can try to re-install it from the cd. It is very difficult to tell you which driver you need with out being able to see the board or knowing the model number.. Download Sisoft Sandra Lite and use the mainboard module(hardware tab and open mainboard, in the field model is the model information and manufacturer is at manufacturer) to check which board you have.\n\nIf you can't find your motherboard manufcaturers website goto http://www.driversguide.com and search for audio drivers there.\n\nyou can find the link to download sisoft sandra 2007 lite at \nhttp://www.sisoftware.net/\n\nI hope that send ou in the right direction, you are welcome to mail me for futher assistance.

if you don't see a sound card such as Creative technology Sound Blaster series plugged into your expansion slot, you are probably using the motherboard's sound module.  Motherboards such as VIA use the Realtek AC'97 sound codec.  You can go to this link to download the driver, install it and see.  http://www.softwarepatch.com/utilities/ac97.html\nno harm trying it.  can always uninstall if it dont work.

Assuming you are simply looking for sound, not looking for the latest, greatest theatre sound etc, just go get a card...to fit your budget. (in my case....as cheap as pssible!) \nsecond assumption, you actually have a sound card as against 'on-board' sound. If you cant find a card with the little coloured sockets on it, you have on-board sound, instead of 'removing the card' remove a blanking plate to enable you to fit a card.\nTo fit the card, remove the side (as you have) leave the PC plugged in but swirched off at the mains\nLooking at your mass inside the PC, the sound card is the one with little pink...blue...green...black... jack sockets on it, there may be others as well.\nRules of combat, one hand for you, one hand on the metal of the PC case, this will prevent 'static damage'\nOn the card, inside the PC, you will see a metal bracket with one cross head screw, loosen this screw and remove it...dont loose it, mind.\nGently, ease the card out. Now, refit the new card where the old one came from, secure with the screw. make sure the card is well seated in the socket.\nHave a cuppa, you did well.\nNow, restart the PC, install the software, follow the prompts...\nIf you originally had 'on-board sound' you will need to disable this in BIOS. Look to the motherboard manufacturers website for your motherboard manual if you have not got one.

check device manager, right click my computer, click on properties, open the hardware tab then click on device manager. from there you can enable/disable your soundcard and/or update drivers.

you first need to know what sound card you have. go to the computer manufacturer's website and go to their downloads section and type in your computer model and number. i.e. presario 5786\nthey should have the specs on your computer, they may even ohave the drivers for your sound card. if they don't write down your sound card's information then go to the sound's card's manufacturer's website to get the drivers. if they don't hav e it, use google to find the drivers you need and download. never underestimate the power fo a good search engine

Put in the soundcard. Install drivers. If not included look up the drivers for the model number online. Check in device manager and control panel/sounds and audio to make sure it works.

If your PC has onboard sound, it may already be surround sound ready. Look at your mobo manual. If you dont have it, download it from the mfgs site.

if you know your sound cards manufacture go to www.driversguide.com and get them you will need to reg. first but it is free. you might get Lucky and try the computers man. web site if it is a on-board sound that means it is built in to the mother board

You're going to slap me for suggesting it, but check the following first:\n\n1. Go to the control panel, check sound.  Is it muted?  Is anything muted?\n2. Double check that the speaker is in the correct port, and not going through another device (speaker/headset splitter, etc) first.\n3. Make sure the card is seated properly.\n\nOnce you've done these, go to the control panel, then system, then hardware, then device manager and make sure the computer knows the card is present and installed.  Make sure it thinks it's running.\n\nGood luck.

What is the last thing you had done before you lost the sound? Reinstall the sound drivers from your motherboard cd. See whether you have accidentally disabled the onboard sound from the BIOS settings, if disabled then enable that. If that does not help re format the HDD and reload the OS and the sound drivers. Above all fail then get a PCI sound card, push it in any PCI slot, disable the onboard sound card in BIOS and install the new card's drivers.

You need to find out what kind of sound card you have, then download the latest drivers. You most probably will have to open up the computer and look at the sound card. It will either be part of the motherboard, or its own card. But somewhere on it it should say a model or manufacturer.

Check if they are jack in fully and correctly.\n\nIf so, check if your sound card is okie (if yours is a seperate sound card that is)\n\nIf all else fails, replace your speakers.

It is probably an AC97 audio driver. \n\nClick start Run, and type DXDIAG. This program gives more information about your sound card on the SOUND tab.\n\nAlternatively open the side of your PC and see what is printed on the sound chip (very small writing if it is part of the motherboard)\n\nIf you have sound then don't update the software!! If you don't try the PC manufacturers website and download the motherboard and sound drivers.
