No Audio Device
i just bought a used pc a dell dimension 5100c. i had to restalled windows xp. now i have no sound from my computer. i clicked the sound card and audio devices in the control panel and it says "No audio devices". all the volume controller is grey out and i cant adjust anythings.. the sound card is on the mother board.

from the device manager in sound, video, game controller, it listed this:

audio codecs
legacy audio drivers
legacy video capture devices
media control devices
video codecs

all the devices are work properly by what is says, but i think my audio device is missing..

i have updated windows and all the updates are good to go.
i have went to this 1 website called driver detect and that has not helped me out at all..

the sound card worked before i had to reformate and reinstall windows xp.. i have done everything i know and im stuck please help..thank you.

Hi saltydogshep and welcome to Dev Shed.

It could be that your on-board sound has been disabled in the BIOS - check in there firstly and see what it is set as.

You likely need to reinstall the audio drivers. You may have gotten a driver cd when you bought the laptop, or you can download them from Dell .
