    I'm not familiar with that type of report.
    I don't see a motherboard ID in it.
    It obviously is stating that you do not have a sound driver installed, though.

    Post a make and model # if your PC is manufactured (Dell, Gateway, HP, etc.) or your motherboard ID, if it is a build.
    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.

    This might be a tough one. I see your chipset but again no motherboard manufacturer.
    Is this a build?
    Do you know the motherboard brand and ID number?

    This would be the chipset drivers for your chipset, but they do not include the audio driver.
    It looks like they need to installed, so install them, run Everest again, then look to see if your motherboard ID shows and if your audio device shows.

    I did happen to find a little info in Everest, that may be helpful:
    Motherboard: NF-MCP61-6A61KE11C-00

    I still am not sure of the type of board, but it looks like it uses Realtek HD.
    So make sure that the chipset driver is installed, then install this audio driver:
    Realtek High Definition Audio for 2K\XP\03

    When I open the program it says:

    EQ Initial Fail!!!

    And there is still no sound.

    HI

    Not always an easy task to find drivers especially audio ones, when no motherboard name is listing as many board makers use specially spec'd versions of the likes of Realtek drivers, so not all will work as you may need a specific one, try this application and see if it lists a Motherboard name, dont need a full report just whats listed under Devices menu > System Devices and next to Motherboard Details

    I know that Muskie above asked if your PC was a OEM one as in HP, DELL etc, but could you tell us if it is indeed one bought from major maker then which one and model version as this may help narrow the drivers down, if its a home build, then do you have the manual or boxes that could tell us what motherboard it is?

    If possible and with PC off, open up the side and see if there are any makers name on the motherboard ( dont touch the parts inside unless your earthed )


    Going by this NF-MCP61-6A61KE11C-00 bold bit is the Nvidia nForce reference to the chipset used and could be in a number of boards, but the back part in just searching that code links "possibly" to this ECS motherboard http://www.ecs.com.tw/ECSWebSite/Pr...ailid=685&DetailName=Driver&MenuID=46&LanID=9

    Will need to uninstall any audio driver previously installed before installing the above one and if you have not already do install the chipset driver, as well as telling us the steps you have taken from the options posted, like installing the chipset driver, what program says EQ Fail as the more info you give us the easier it is to help narrow the problem down.
