I recently built a computer it is only a work pc so its not to flashy, but it wont play sound. i installed the latest drivers and uninstalled them an re installed multiple times.in control panel it says its putting sound through to the hdmi audio jack. which i dont have. and on the task bar it says no audio output device is installed. im using the on board sound card and dont want to buy a sound card at this point. any ideas?
