First of all you do have sound Media Player, Games. So I would think what you want is the sound the computer makes turning on/off opening window excreta
Control Panel…Sound and Audio Devices…Sound (tab) and pick your sound scheme

 

Hi chaimjm thanks for responding but thats not the problem. I do have those settings set properly and even when i go to sound devices and sounds tab i can t get any sound to play from the different program events. I have no startup sound no loading sound but the on i care about and need to fix is i have no sound in mozilla firefox or internet explorer. please help

 

have you tried to go to start>control panel>internet options>advanced tab. Scroll down to 'multimedia', and check 'play sounds in web pages'.

When did it start,
have you downloaded anything lately

 

Replying to buggabear first. Yes i have 'play sounds in web pages' option turned on.
The problem started about 4 days ago and all i downloaded was new drivers for realtek than unistalled them and got new ones again when the internet sound was not working. my housemate also uses my pc so he might of downloaded something i am unaware of.

Replying to Halo: I am using windows xp professional. Tried ur solutions and still nothing i am in the process of trying the registry fixes will update when done

thanks for your feedback guys

 

Also i cant figure out what to do with the registry file where to save it and what to backup :S

 

Thanks marktrent but this did not work i downloaded the hd audio codec from realtek site and uninstalled restarted reinstalled still the same. The audio code i got was titled wdm_r207 im fairly sure this is the right one? Kn9-sli motherboard

 

Are you updated to SP3?
If you are, HD audio will not install without a mod.
If this is the case, let us know and I will provide a fix.

This is your chipset driver from Abit: nForece500 Series Chipset Driver
Install it first.
This is the Realtek driver from Abit for your board: Realtek High Definition Audio Driver R190
You may have to also, install the KB888111 if the Abit Driver doesn't contain it: . KB888111xpsp2.exe

If the audio driver install fails, post a screenshot of your Device Manager and any drivers with a ? or ! in front of them.

I'm not sure that this will solve your problem.

Check: Control Panel>Sounds and Audio Devices: click the Volume tab.
Click Advanced in Device Volume area.
Make sure that you have Volume Control, Wave, SW Synth, and CD Player all listed in the Control. Make sure none are muted and the volumes are at a listenable level.
If not there, click Options>Properties and mark the boxes for them.

 

Hi replying to musksnipe.
