Are your audio plugs on the I/O plate or in a expansion slot, see here, click image to focus
http://www.overclockeddoc.com/bookwo...0io%20slot.JPG

highway_star · #**581** 03-02-2008, 09:12 AM

sorted!

It is an expansion slot. I dont know why but but simply unplugging the sound system then plugging it back in has made the PC 'think' the sound is back on! the wonders of technology!

Thanks for the help

I just built my new computer yesterday, everything is working fine, but I can't get any kind of sound out of it, if I try to go to the volume control in "Accessories" I'm told I don't have a sound mixer, in Devices, I have a yellow exclmation mark next to "MPU-401 Compatible MIDI Device" and "ES1688 AudioDrive (WDM)" and also "PCI Device", although "PCI Device"'s logo isn't the speaker, so I don't think that's related.
