ASUS Mobo - No sound

I have spent about a week reading through the fixes offered in these great forums but have been unable to fix my system.

I have a ASUS P5E WS Pro mobo. I have tried removing my sound card, reinstalling drivers, reinstalling sound card, reinstalling drivers and all combos of the above and yet I still can't get any sound.

If I play a cd and go into manage audio devices I see the speaker level changing so it is detecting the sound but nothing out of my speakers.

Any thoughts or advice would be greatly appreciated.

Do you have sound from the ports built into your motherboard? I would recommend you test this with your add in sound card removed.
I have an Asus P5K motherboard and am using the built in sound.

Let me know

Your internal sound card drivers are here ASUS P5E WS Professional Driver Download
I would remove the add on card and load the drivers for the built in card to see if this helps.

I have updated my drivers and still have no sound coming out of the speakers. The system is recognizing the sound as the levels move when looking at the 'volume mixer' but nothing is coming out of the physical speakers.
I tried to paste a picture but was unsuccessful and I think my description explains it well enough.

Mine is doin the same thing. I cant play my dvd player, I hope it not in my MB.

Still banging my head on the desk over this problem. Speakers work fine on laptop so that is not the problem. I have removed and let the system reinstall the RealTek drivers with no success.

I hate to think that I have to buy a new mobo, cpu, memory, etc just bc I upgraded to win 7 64...

Any help or advice would be appreciated.

Laptop.. ? but you're talking about a desktop, right.

Are you still seeing the green bar move?

Things to check...


-Plug stereo speakers into the back "light green" jack in the back of the machine.

-Right click the Microsoft speaker icon, select playback devices. Make sure Speakers are your default output device. (green check mark)

Single left click "speakers" then select the "properties button".
Go the the levels tab, make sure all levels are up.

Go the the enhancements tab, select "immediate mode" first.. then, for now "disable all enhancements".

Back to the window where you selected the properties button, select the configure button. Select stereo.

Any luck yet?

Ap

Laptop was to just make sure speakers worked...

Unfortunately I have tried everything you suggest and I am still having the same problem. It seems like it has to be something stupid that I am overlooking...

It is a simple Logitech S220 system. 2 small fronts and a little sub.

I know it is hard to diag on a forum but appreciate any help.
