Solved No sound since reinstall of windows 7

[RosieP]

I recently re install windows 7 on to computers. On the first one sound is fine on 2nd one there is no sound at all. On checking in volume mixer the System sound does not appear to be working, although the speakers are. In device manager it says drivers are up to date. Could anyone help please or is anyone able to do a remote control of my PC to fix it ? Regards Rosie

Try this for starters: Start Orb>Type Troubleshooting, click on the link. Under Hardware and Sound select Troubleshoot audio playback. Follow the prompts.

Right click the volume icon and make sure the proper playback device is chosen.

Could you post a pic of device mgr with the sound icon expanded ?

On the window you just put up, click on Realtrek High Definition Audio to select it. At the bottom of that window click on Configure. Afterwards, select Properties tap there, as well. Make sure are your settings are correct.

Setting correct, I had these speakers on this PC before, but since reinstall now no sound. they was working perfect before and also work fine on other pc. I am sure its something really simple too lol There appears to be no system sound either

just to let you know i have figured it out! Manage to sort in realtek audio manager by disabling front jacks thank you for help

 

[AmericanPharaoh]

Front Jacks? Can you put up a screen shot of this?

Image attached. In my case I knew it would be something simple, may not be the case for others though. I appreciate once again you help

I never did ask you the brand and model of speakers your using, are they 5.1 speakers? In original post, you said one was working and one was not which lead me to believe you only had two speakers. Speaker configuration in your screen shot shows 5.1.

Sorry, in original post I meant one PC was working fine with sound, one PC was not. yes they are 5 in 1 speakers although I only have 2 left. Done me a lot of years, am sure that was part of the problem too lol
