No sound

Well im getting no sound on my computer at all and everytime I try to change the volume it says.

There are no active mixer devices available.
This program will close now.

When I check it on the control panel it says there is no audio device. The sound was working just the other day so I have no idea. Could it be I just need a new driver for it and if so how in the world should I know which one.

 

Post a make and model # if your PC is manufactured (Dell, Gateway, HP, etc.) or your motherboard ID, if it is a build.
Or even better:
Use Everest to get a report of your system’s hardware, OS, and drivers. Upload the report as an attachment
Everest: http://www.majorgeeks.com/download.php?det=4181
When Everest is done scanning, click "Report" at the top of the Everest window, click next to get to "Report Profile", select "Hardware related pages", click next, select "Plain Text", click "Finish". Then when it is done processing, click "Save To File". Save it where you want to. (I would use Desktop.)
Click "Go Advanced" in the MG reply box, scroll down a little way until you see "Manage Attachments", click it, browse to your file, click "Upload", and close the window. Then submit the post. You may have to also type something in the reply box, like, "Here's my report.", so that it will submit.

 

Here is the report I got back thanks for the directions man.

 

First, reinstall your chipset
Intel Chipset Software Installation Utility

Then install your audio driver:
Analog Devices ADI 198x Integrated Audio

Hope, this works for you.
