No Audio Output Device is Installed.

I have just installed a new Dell computer. In the lower tool bar window their
is a red x next to the sound symbol. When I click on that symbol the error
message reads, " No Audio Output Device is Installed. Has anyone else had a
problem with Windows Vista on a Dell computer? I have tried everything and am
wondering how to install the Audio Output Device. I would love to have sound
on my computer! Appreciate your help.

Have you gone to the Dell site and see if there is a Vista driver for your
audio device?

If you just received the computer (which I find doubtful...I think something
is wrong here), it most definately will work. What does 'just installed a
new Dell computer' mean? We have many many dozens of Dells and NONE was
delivered with any component that did not work!
