Hi guys, sorry to be a pain but after my pc was reformatted and everything reloaded...no sound!
Can someone please help as this is like having half a computer!

You need to reload the drivers.

What is the make and model of the computer or motherboard?

The manufacturer's web site will have the drivers.

Hi there Jephree, I have downloaded the belarc tool and the following has been cut and pasted in order that you have the info you need. Many thanks for the help.
