Vista - No sound

Dear All

I have installed Windows Vista and all available updates. However,
there is no sound.

Any ideas?

Thanks in advance,

Paul

I'm seeing what may be a similar issue with a portable computer. I get
sound from the speakers on the portable computer, but when it is docked I
get no sound at all instead of getting sound from the plugged-in speakers.

Paul,

Reintsall your sound drivers for your particular sound card. You should be
able to find Vista compatible drivers at your sound card maker's website.

Thanks, Ed and Mickey. How can I find out the maker of my sound card?

OK, got it:

Audio device: Intel Corporation 82801G (ICH7 Family) High Definition
Audio Controller (rev 01)

Now, where from can I get the driver?

Paul

Go here http://www.radarsync.com/vista/ and look for your drivers. Hope
this helps.

The problem is now solved. I went to Gigabyte's site to get the
proprer driver.

Also, try this. Go to Hardware and Sounds in Control Panel, Click Manage
Audio Devices. Click on each of the items that control your "Speakers" and
click the "Properties" button at the bottom. Under "Advanced" uncheck the
boxes under exclusive mode. Now go back in to the "Speakers" control that
lists your sound card. Click "Properties". Click "Advanced". Now recheck the
boxes under "Exclusive Mode". Now hit the "test" button. Your sound should
now work.

This worked for me in dealing with this problem.

Hope this helps.
