Lost Sound after Power Shortage
Hi everyone, I forgot my laptop in sleep mode yesterday, and since my battery is dead, someone from the house removed the AC Adapter and the PC turned off, when i turned it on this morning, there was no sound, there is no red cross on the sound icon in the notification bar, that one is fully functional as i can increase/decrease volume, but there is no sound coming of the speakers, i tried with my headphones, but still nothing, I've checked my Control Panel and the speakers are already set to default, but nothing comes out, i also tried uninstalling and reinstalling the drivers, and the problem persists, i rebooted 7 times to no avail, can anyone help me on this matter ? I did however find a temporary fix, going to the bios and "Save settings then Exit" seems to get the sound back but, every time i shut my computer down completely, the sound is lost and i have to do the fix again.
I use a Intel Core i3 M380 DELL INSPIRON N5010 running Windows 7 ultimate x64 bits on 4GB of ram, Intel HD Graphics 2000, my Sound Card uses IDT High Definition Audio Codec that i got from Dell's Website. If you guys need any more info please let me know I'll be monitoring this thread by the second.
