ok i just upgraded from a gtx 460 to a gtx 660 ftw edition. i booted up and installed my drivers for the graphics card and rebooted again and my desplay is fine now. i realized that my audio on the system tray has an x over it and when i hover the mouse over it it says no speaker or audio devices plugged in. i have a built in speaker on my monitor and it is plugged into my motherboard never touched it. i googled how to fix it and someone said that the new graphics cards have audio on it and i dont know how to fix it. ive uninstalled and updated all of my audio drivers and it says that the driver is working properly but it obviously isnt working..... please help asap. i dont want to get a new motherboard my motherboard is The M2N68-LA (Narra6) and i have a compaq presario cq5320y gtx 660 ftw 700 watt psu. please help

Did you plug your monitor in using the DVI-D port? If so, try plugging it in with HDMI. DVI-D doesn't carry audio.

DVI to vga will not carry sound. Do you have an hdmi port on your monitor? I'm not positive but I think it has to be hdmi to hdmi to carry sound.
