No sound, DL'ed 2 Soundblaster drivers
I've tried it all.
Have you tried windows update? I got a driver from there for my soundblaster (even though it was useless, i found another fix) but maybe you should give more detail as there are many models of soundblaster?
Do you at least have the speaker icon appearing near your PC clock? I find in W7 that the default sound device keeps switching to headphones from my speakers and I have to switch it back. Just a thought.
What sound card are you using exactly and. if it is separate from the motherboard, have you then disabled onboard sound in the BIOS?
Is your system 32 or 64-bit?
soundblaster x-fi, and 32 bit. i can't detect the card anywhere. audio controllers tab in device manager says "ATI Unified AVStream Driver" is installed, but no soundblaster. should i uninstall that AVS thing? also, no volume thing at the bottom. thanks for your attention guys!
Maybe it's come loose. Is this a PC tower? Go inside and make sure it's pushed in the slot firmly.
