NO Sound problem

When I try to change the volume controls, a message pops up saying there are no active mixer devices available. I've searched for a solution, but haven't seem to find one. Anyway, here is my computer information:

I recently fried by GIGABYTE motherboard and went out and got m'self a MSI K9mm-V with an AMD Athlon 64 +3000 processor. Everything is going swell except for the usual sound issue everyone else is experiencing here. I've downloaded the correct Realtek driver and it says its loaded on my Sound and Audio device properties, yet I still have no ear candy. Its driving me bonkers.

Check these out first

Go to Control Panel / Sound & Audio Devices / Audio tab / Sound Playback – click on down arrow and check that the correct audio is selected. Typically the problem will be something “modem line 0 playback” has been substituted for the correct audio device.


Start / Control Panel / Administrative Tools / Component Services / a separate window will open – in left pane click Services(Local) / Scroll down to Windows Audio service / if the service is Disabled or Manual right click > select Properties > under Startup Type change to Automatic > click Apply > click Start > Reboot.

Hello. Two or three days ago I had to format my hard drive and since then my sound has not been working and Windows can not detect my soundcard. My soundcard is on my Fujitsu Siemens D1561 Motherboard... I've been trying to find drivers but I can't find anything that works. I have installed Windows XP SP 2, Windows 2000 SP 4 and Windows XP SP 2 again. Windows can find ''Multimedia Audio Controller'' (I'm guessing it's that one?) but it can't find any drivers... If anyone could help me I would be forever thankful.

[Paddis]

Sorry, I could not find any button to remove my previous message, but I found the drivers so don't mind my previous message.

Are you using the original hard drive with the same OS that had the Gigabyte board in, did you install the chipset drivers, have you checked the BIOS to see if audio enabled?
