Solve : My laptop has lost it's speaker driver - i think?

Answer»

When I turned my laptop on today it couldnt play sound and pops up with a message saying no audio input device installed... It was fine yesterday... Why has this happened and how do I fix it? thankyou.The Driver will be on the laptop Driver CD that shipped with the MACHINE...
Simply re-install it and re-boot and you should be GOOD to go...I didn't get a CD it was already set up...Visit the manuf. website...enter your info and search for the sound chip drivers...ok will do, but do you know why it's done this?

Have you located your driver YET?installed nothing, downloaded nothing, just no sound when i turned it on today.

Driver for Windows Vista & XP - Advent 5312 Notebook Realtek HD Audio

Description: Windows XP & Vista - Realtek HD Audio Driver (V5.10.0.5648)

Cheers, but it's working with the one i just downloaded. 
Just wish I knew what i did to mess it up in the first place...
Thanks for all your help anyways!It may have been an outdated version of the driver, an unstable version.

Anyways, as long as it works now. There are numerous reasons a driver file can become CORRUPTED...
Glad you're fixed up.
