i formated earlier and when i finished i tried installing my drivers back to my surprise i couldn't find the yellow mark next to my sound device in "device manager" meanwhile theres still no sound to b heard and each time i try to listen to a song or something media player gives me a sound error saying tht theres no sound device..
i run "dxdiag" in the run command and same result in the sound tab it says no sound card found.. though when i go to device manager all my sound devices point out tht they're working properly..

Did you fiddle inside the computer?
Your sound card might not be in properly. Very common.
Turn your computer off. Take it out and put it back in.
If it still does not work, don't give up. Do it again. Make sure it is push all the way into the slot.

The problem you mentioned is not a rare one. Many of us face such problems after reinstallation or formatting. After all you have got the net connection so dont worry. Better go to the web-site of your sound card manufacturer company and surf around for a solution. Or else if u have got a cd install it. I can help only upto that as you have not mentioned your sound card manufacturers name. Thanks.
