Have reinstalled XP and everything works OK, no sound, when I go into Control Panel and click sounds and audio devices, volume, says no audio device?

Can anyone help?

Download and install the latest audio drivers. You can find them in your PC manufacturer's Web site, in the first case, or, failing that, the manufacturer of the sound card / device *.

* If your audio device is built into your motherboard, go to the website of the manufacturer of the motherboard to get.

  • After you have reinstalled windows xp, I lost my audio devices of the system

    I plugged in a new usb mouse and hub 4way in my computor screen went blue, wgen she is back on I had no control of the mouse. I plugged the old mouse, the screen was frozen. Ishut down and rebooted but nothing works. I reinstalled windows xp butnow I have not any showwing audio device connected. the motherboard is foxcom

    You has not LOST the device if you have installed new XP Windows.  You simply do not have the device for device drivers, Windows XP can actually communicate with the device.

    You will need to download and install all THE drivers for hardware devices.  Motherboard chipset, audio, video, networks, printers, scanners, cameras and so forth.

    "Foxcom" tells us nothing and is only part of the story.  In order to get the drivers, you will need to know each device you have (or at least the make and model of the motherboard or computer as a whole.)

  • Help, I lost my audio device

    I'm a total Klutz when it comes to computers, and while freeing up some disk space, it seems I accidentally uninstalled a program that has my audio device on it. Can someone tell me what to do and in idiots talk please?

    Either:
    * Reinstall the audio drivers (audio) on a CD of the utility that comes with your PC/computer laptop

    or:
    * Go to the computer manufacturer's website and go to their page to support for your PC/laptop. Download the latest XP dedicated drivers and install them.

    If you don't know how process re-post with PC/Laptop make, name and model number.

    See you soon,.

  • Updated the video card, lost my audio devices

    Hi, I'm running a Dell Precision T5400, and I upgraded my Nvidia GeForce GTX 380 for a Nvidia GeForce GTX 480 video card.  Now I have no sound.  The Audio Control Panel applet claims that I have no audio hardware.  In the Device Manager my sound, video and game controllers list the following:

    NVIDIA High Definition Audio (4 times)

    Audio codecs

    Legacy Audio drivers

    But nothing indicating a question or a problem, that it is as if the physical audio device simply disappeared.  Because the operating system does not even see anything to have a problem with, I don't know how to troubleshoot further.  I suspect that the Audio of HD, NVIDIA is because the system now expects 4.Supporting audio over HDMI?  Just a guess.  Anyone seen this before?

    Change Audio settings embedded in the BIOS of 'auto' on 'on '.  By selecting "on", it provides the integrated audio system is to be recognized and used as primary.

  • How can I find my audio device in my computer to reinstall

    Remove audio or audio device

    -Right click on my computer, choose Manage

    -on the tree in the left pane, click Device Manager

    -on the tree in the right pane, you can find the features found by windows

    Check what is in the audio and game controllers, if you can see your sound card listed. Otherwise, there should be a yellow question mark on the tree of devices with a title "audio device unknown" or similar. Right-click on it and choose Update driver. Try to install it automatically first. If you are lucky windows will find the previous drivers for it and automatically reinstalls the device. Or if you have the driver for the audio device simply package reinstall from a file manager.

  • I have a problem with Realtek HD Audio devices. Windows XP Professional SP2 operating system.

    My speakers worked fine for two years, since I bought a laptop. I was connected to the Internet recently and my brother was cleaning my computer against malware with Avast. Since then, my occasionally speakers have not worked. I used the cd that I got with a high tower, reinstal drivers for the audio device and it worked, my speakers worked again. But sometimes, not all the time, when I turn on the computer for my speakers do not work. Again, I insert the cd with the drivers and speakers will highlight function, until next time, when this problem is repeated. I don't know if my brother may had deleted files while scaning my computer with Avast, because he found a few malwars - win 32 I have a Trojan horse.

    Search for files in which pilots must be, but I think that I have not found some of them. Is that possible, I ask that the speakers are working somentimes?

    If please answer me if you know what is causing this problem and how can we challenge. Thank you!

    I had reinstalled the OS and everything is ok now :) computer was full of malware.

  • SigmaTel HD Audio device will not work

    It really bothers me.

    I have a Dell XPS M1330 running Windows Vista 32 - Bit SP2.
    The sound was working before, but I had uninstalled a driver graphic but re-installed.
    In the good category, I have 2 SigmaTel High Definition Audio devices installed but no sound does not work.
    I tried to download many drivers and codecs, but the problem won't go away. The icon in the taskbar is currently looks like a speaker with a small "x" on it. Not the 'x' which is shown when she is silent, she is a white "x" inside a red circle.
    Can someone please give me a solution to this. I tried to get into the devices and deactivation and activation sound once again, but the problem persists. Help, please.
    Furthermore, the laptop was recently formatted and reinstalled Vista 32 bit Home Premium with all the drivers installed and works very well.
    Try this:
    Go to control panel, sounds. On the Read tab, click speakers, and then click on the "Set as default" button below. If you do not see your speakers, then right-click on the box, on the shortcut menu that appears, click on the box in front of "show disabled devices" and "Show disconnected devices" to put a check mark on them. Buttons-click apply then OK to exit.

  • Audio device plays boring loop forever, even if disabled.

    Hello

    I had a problem on multiple computers, Windows 7 & 8, where sometimes if a program crashes or is not closed correctly, the audio device that used the program will continuously play a short segment (maybe a tenth of a second) audio in an endless loop, until the computer is restarted.
    The only other way to cut noise is to transform the master up to 0 volume slider. We have tried to disable the audio device, but oddly the sound would still play so THAT the device has been DISABLED. Hibernation and then wake the computer also has not resolved the problem, even if it turns off virtually everything. This makes it appear as a driver issue, as RAM is the only thing preserved through hibernation.
    Is there a way to reset the driver somehow to make this problem go away? Or is there another solution here?
    Thank you!
    -Steve

    I found how to solve the problem on mine:

    1. go to: Control Panel > hardware and sound > manage Audio devices
    2. Select the annoying audio device, and then click Properties.
    3. click on properties under the controller information.
    4. click on change settings.
    5. Select the driver tab and then click on disable. Press Yes when asked for confirmation.
    6. then press Activate.
