About a month ago I lost the sound on my pc.
It says "no sound device installed".
Any suggestions?

Thanks

Hi and welcome to PC Help Forum.

Ok, "no sound device installed"...well it can realistically only be a couple of things.

1) No Sound card/ Faulty sound card
2) The drivers (software) hasn't been installed for the PC correctly (or at all!)

The first thing you need to do is tell us the EXACT make & model number of your PC (asuming it's not a "home-build").

Hi Hengis,
I have a Toshiba v3100 about 5 yrs old. I bought it new through peoplepc.
I have Windows 98 2nd edition
I have had sound the entire time that I have owned it untill about a month ago. My son was using the computer, is there any chance could have erased it?
I can't find the "no sound device installed" again, can you tell me where I found it?
This is all Greek to me!
Thanks a lot.

I think it could be a simple case of driver re-installation.

I have put the file that you need (SD_AU8810_Win9x.exe - for Toshiba V3100 Onboard) into the Download section of this site HERE.

You will need to do the following:

1) Download the file
2) Double-Click on it and extract it to a place you are gonna remember (i.e: c:\sounddrivers)
3) Click on "Start" > Run > c:\sounddrivers\AU10Setp.exe and follow the on-screen instructions.

Let us know how you get on.

Hengis,
I had to wait for my son to come over and do it for me, It worked.
I have sound again!!!!!!!!
Thanks a LOT!

I am pleased for you

It's a pleasure to be able to help.

That is great newsfor you perdidojoe - having no sound at all can be really annoying, I had it happen to me before. It was like watching TV with mute switched on :smt009
