Sooo, I updated my sound card driver today ...
And now my sound doesn't work at all. Went and rolled back the drivers, still nothing. What the hell happened?
 I even tried looking on the internets for older drivers, and admittedly it's an older sound card (Sound Blaster Audigy LS), but that didn't work either. I can't figure out what happened. It was working fine the night before ... Any ideas?

Some day a sound card vendor will come along who knows how to write drivers. Some day.

Check your device manager to make sure its being recognized by windows.

If nothing else works try uninstalling and reinstalling.

I've tried everything suggested here, unfortunately I lost the install CD a long time ago and I think that's the stem of the problem. I figured updating the drivers wouldn't do so much damage, but apparently I was wrong.

It's a longshot, but try downloading the last version of windows media player and reinstalling.

About an hour ago I downloaded an updated video driver from the card producer's web site and installed it. It did absolutely nothing for the video performance I was looking for and promised but I found I could no longer log on to the internet - email, web browsing, ftp all dead  Uninstalling the driver did nothing to improve it.Fortunately using System Restore I'm back to where I was before downloading the driver and am back on line. I just love this stuff  Last edited by Mac Howard : 06-18-2007 at 10:22 AM. |

Well, I figured it out. Apparently the new drivers went in and turned on the "digital output only" option in the control panel, and once I un-checked that option, my sound is working again.
Thanks everybody for all of the suggestions.
