Do you know what type of soundcard it is? Does it have any labels at all? If so, post them and I'll point you to the right place for the drivers. Once you have them it's easy-peasy!

I have had the same thing happen to me. I assume you have checked the obvious, such as mute button on, audio program that has an equalizer which is shut down or muted, Volume level at lowest setting etc.
In my experience there usually is a driver conflict. Windows can load an audio driver and you may have software that came with your sound card that may conflict.
Find out the make and model of your sound card, go to the manufacturers website, download and install the proper drivers.
It is difficult to answer your question but these are the obvious solutions.
Hope this helps

you need to figure out what soundcard you have. If there is no standalone soundcard, then it is integral with your motherboard. In either case, just write the make and model of your soundcard or motherboard down, go to google.com, and search for "download driver

once you re-formated your workstation each and each and every of the software drivers had to run the hardware on your sound card were lost. My purely right suggestion is to take the sound card out of your workstation and note in case you are able to locate which make and variety it truly is. once you comprehend this, you are able to go onto the web and seek for for the software drivers. purely be particular you choose the right ones on your operating gadget, e.g. abode windows XP/2000. once you've downloaded them run the setup prog and which will be that. If it doesn't artwork, or you cant locate the drivers, i'd say the purely right element to do is purchase a sparkling sound card, they're many times very low-cost till you want an complete blown sound card for music production.

No sound is heard on the computer or after Windows has been reinstalled. The audio card is often integrated with the motherboard for computers from HP and Dell. For more information you can check the following site: http://fixit.in/sound.html I find the information givenin the site is more useful

Download driver detective it looks at your pc and tells you which drivers you need. You have to pay but its a one off and you can use it on numerous pc. There is other driver software available but I have used this and it works. All the updates are carried out in a very simple way that anyone could use.

install the drivers and check to make sure the plug hasn;t come out and then if you don;t have the disk go onto control panel and install a windows driver or go on the internet and you should be able to download it
