No sound after win 7 upgrade
I bought windows 7 ultimate and I am afraid that I will be out all of this money if I cannot get the sound to work! Since I do not believe you can return opened software. I need serious help!!!
I upgraded to Windows 7 and installed the drivers for my Toshiba m55-2932 sound card and before installing checked the windows XP box under the compatibility tab. No sound. I did windows update for this driver and it installed an updated driver. No sound. I went to Realtek and installed the windows 7 driver for the Realtek AC 97 sound card and got LOW sound. Now I rebooted and back to No sound.
Before windows 7 sound, after no sound.
I called Toshiba and the told me to try "this" driver and it turns out it was the same on as on the Realtek website. So no, still no sound. They said to call Realtek....
I don't know know what to do! I don't want to go back to using XP but sound is REALLY important. I'm sure this is an integrated sound card (Toshiba isn't making service manuals public) so I cannot remove it. I don't think I have any available PCI slots to install a new one internally and I don't want external speakers since I do a lot of traveling. And I looked at PCMCIA sound cards but I don't even think Windows 7 supports PCMCIA technology.
Is there a fix I don't know about? What can I do? Please HELP!!!
