hi, try this. go to control panel like this> start > control panel > system > hardware > device manager > look for anything with a big yellow ?. right click on it and uninstall it. make sure youre connected to the internet and restart youre computer. when it gets back on you might get windows hardware wizard asking you to reinstall drivers ..it will ask if it can connect to internet to find drivers, say yes just this once... just keep saying yes or ok. when its finished restart again and see if you have sound .good luck.
