no sound

[emmapayne27]

Hiya can anyone help recently I had to do a system restore, it was only rolled back 2 wks but now I have no sound. when I go into tools it says " No audio device detected" I dont understand I had sound at the date which I rolled back to so why not now and how do I get it back ? I only use the laptop speakers & have no disc.

Thanks

Not sure if this will be any good, but have you tried going into Control panel>system >hardware>device manager - check there for the item thats your Sound device and check the properties - look at the option to update driver - when it asks you where to look, look into the main system drive (C Drive?)

[emmapayne27]

Yes I have done that & it says there is no audio device detected,

try going into device manager, deleting the sound device entry and rebooting - windows will see the sound device and install the drivers (or maybe ask for the driver dick)
