First use System Restore to go back to before the problem occured, if this does not solve the problem follow the steps below.


Your service tag is B9L5361

Set a System Restore Point before installing drivers just in case


Go here to Dell http://support.euro.dell.com/support...&os=WW1&osl=EN

Download and install the chipset driver then RESTART your comp

then download and install the audio driver

Hope this helps

My computer was put together for me and it is not made by anyone sorry. I have a yellow asterix over the multimedia audio controller also. I am pretty sure I have a sound card because I have used this computer alot and the sound worked but when I got it formatted it now doesn't work.

Thank you for your help.

Check your cd's look for a nVidia it may be a tv card, load in cd drive, then close the programe, go to Device Manager and right click problem device and select Update driver. Device Manager will find the driver on the cd and install for you. See this ling it explains what device Manager can do http://www.techhelpforum.com/softwar...n-os-2972.html

Check for a cd from Creative for sound, insert in cd drive, then close the programe, if you don't have one then look for the motherboard cd and do the same. go to Device manager and right click the problem and select Update driver, Device Manager will find the driver from the cd and install. Look at this link at what Device manager can do http://www.techhelpforum.com/softwar...n-os-2972.html

Set a System Restore Point before installing any drivers just in case

Your motherboard ASUS A7N8X-X has Realtek ALC650 onboard audio drivers, this is the link http://w3serv.realtek.com.tw/downloa...&Software=True

Also shown is Creative SB Live (WDM) sound card,now Creative offer a Software Auto Update see this link http://www.soundblaster.com/support/

Realtek and Creative drivers are both updated and still no sound(Media player and Winamp don't recognize any soundcard on my system).

P.S.- I have a 2nd OS installed on my computer and i don't have any audio problem there.
