    hi for the past 5 months i have been getting no audio through my pc i have tried speakers, headphones and even a plasma tv still nothing.
    i tried installing all different drivers but no joy. so today i restarted my whole pc with a clean install of xp sp2 home edition but still no sound i bought driverupdater pro and that cannot see any problems with my audio drivers same with driver genius and driver detective. i was told to download everest to check my system i got it and i have nothing under multimedia therefore meaning something was missing. to be honest i dont know what drivers im supposed to get and i cannot solve this problem my pc is packard bell istart 1360 please help me solve this problem thanks if any more information is needed just ask thanks
