    Hey guys, I've yet another audio issue..

    This time my sound card has decided to do a disappearing act! Just last night it was working fine, booted up today when i got home from school and there was no sound at all. No sound card is listed in the device manager nor can the computer find it when it searches for it..

    Now i'm stuck without my much needed music :-(

    Please help!!

    Remove soundcard, and put it back in (perhaps to a different slot).

    Tried it without success. She's fried i'd say. Dont understand why though. God I hate audio problems what good is a comp that can't play back any sound for me.

    Thanx for the response.

    Does Windows' plug&play system find the card at all? Are BIOS settings intact?

    It really seems dead then..strange. Only way to verify that is with some other PC I guess.
