Stereo Mix went missing after wiping HDD

Hello there. I recently sent in my computer for reparation, and also to extend my HDD capacity. So the guy obviously changed to a brand new HDD and installed Vista 64 instead of the previous 32. Now i noticed that the stereo mix in gone, and so is Realtek HD Audio manager, so i wonder if those two have anything incommon?

And yes, i have tried to enable inactivated units and so on without any luck. I have also tried to download Realtek HD Audio Manager codecs, however it doesn't seem to work, is it because it's just codecs without the real software? Does anyone have a solution to this?

Thanks in advance.

Hi welcome to Vista Forums. Sorry to hear about your problems.
I think maybe one thing worth checking out is by ringing or calling in on the guy/company that did your reparation.
Just for them to specify exactly what they did?
Plus a little more info on your specs would be good. The more info we have the better

 What is the Make & Model Number of Your Computer?
E.g. Dell 1545 Laptop,……… HP SR5019UK PC……………

You may find quite a bit of useful information contained in the articles of this link, and sub-links.

Hope it is helpful. Please let us know how you progress.

You can show stereo mix by opening up the playback devices and right clicking in an empty area, click on show disabled devices and it should appear again

I don't mean to be rude, but if you would have read my entire post you would have seen that i already tried this solution without success.
