| | No Sound Problem in Windows Vista Recently I've been having this problem with my sound and I'm not sure what caused it or how to fix it. After every restart my sound does not work. Everything appears to be fine on my machine, the computer detects my speakers, it's not on mute, the volume is turned up, and when I play any audio it even shows the sound levels on the sound bar but nothing is coming out of my speakers. If I reinstall my sound drivers (the most recent ones, I've checked) my sound works on the restart done by the driver install. But if I restart again the sound is gone again until I reinstall the drivers. Reinstalling drivers every single time I turn my computer off and on is not a viable solution, so can somebody please help? I'm running Vista Ultimate x64 and a X-Fi Xtreme Music soundcard. |

Even though I have the onboard audio set up for surround, though, and it tests every speaker in my setup fine I can't get any sound from my surround or sub when playing an audio file. |
