I've upgraded my computer... now a sound problem arises... I'm using bubbles as my screensaver set to 6 mins, after that in power options turn off monitor at 15 mins.. I've installed Adobe Audition, Winamp etc.. when i tried to play a song in winamp, it shows like the below attached image, opened audition: same problem, opened WMP: same problem... no sound from computer... i've checked speaker levels, while moving the slider, it shows nothing... plz help... is it a motherboard problem ???
Are you using integrated sound card or is it an external one??If its the latter i suggest checking if sound card is seated properly on the MB.Otherwise maybe your sound card is failing.

I remember not long ago when i build my desktop for the first time i had ASUS MB and on board sound card failed.If your MB is still under warranty i suggest to take it to ASUS repair center.
Or hold on others may have better suggestion.

You said in your first post that you have upgraded your computer. Can you be more precise? What exactly have you upgraded the hardware or the OS?

yes.... its listed in the specs.... I'm on a surge of buying a new motherboard as u (dwarf) said to go with Gigabyte... but i want to assure its my ASUS' inbuilt sound problem (listed above)...
It could be either or both. I've no experience with VIA audio (all my systems have used Realtek), so it might be pertinent to see if a VIA audio user can offer any advice.

Short of putting a spare PCI sound card in it is difficult to tell!

i've formatted my computer atleast 3 times to get rid of this problem, of the thought of a virus... scanned with malwarebytes and found no infections though..
I doubt this is malware-related : it certainly points to a hardware/driver issue. has the sound ever worked on this system before? At which point did it stop functioning properly?
Regards,
Golden

Have you tried the mundane things like, trying the speakers in the front speaker socket? Trying a headset in the front and back sockets? Trying your speakers in another PC if this is possible?
