Re: no sound from computer

Matty, go to your Device Manager, right click on whatever the driver is for the audio, tell it to "uninstall" and then reboot.

If it reboots, and redetects the card, it should set it back to all default settings. If it detects it and it still doesn't work, there's some other things I'd consider. I'd also consider updating the BIOS using the files located on the Dell website.

Alright, tried that now I'm getting a question mark next to Multimedia Audio Controller in the device manager.

What model is the machine? If it didn't redetect it and it previously had before, it sounds like there is definitely something wrong hardware-wise.

Yeah, Matty, have you checked the device manager for the yellow ?'s after a reboot?
