Answer» HI, i recently upgraded to windows vista home PREMIUM and my sound has stopped working. it was at one point after upgrading but after restarting it stopped working and i have no idea how to fix it. i've uploaded an msinfo report and dxdiag, please advise. [year+ old attachment deleted by admin]you don't TELL us what you upgraded from. But you may need to update drivers for the audio card and or the chipset drivers for the new O/S. try the audio card drivers first. What is displaying for the audio card in "device manager"?truenorthi used to have windows xp (x86) SP3 the hardware says it's fne it doesn't report a problem but still no sound. Ok so can i just install generic audio drivers like realtek or something because the one that comes with my motherboard is sound max and hasn't been updated for a while. as with the intel chipset drivers, can you guide me on where to find the right ones please you should get them from the motherboard manufacturers site..Download speccy http://www.piriform.com/speccy/download/standard After the file finishes downloading, double click on it to start the installation.
