No Sound

[Guest]

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.windowsxp.hardware (More info?)

I loaded XP pro on my computer and I have no sound all of
a sudden. I had sound prior to installing XP pro. I
reformatted the harddrive and reloaded soundblaster just
in case it was a driver issue. Seems like all the other
drivers are ok though. I'm using desktop speakers and
made that selection in control panel/sounds. Any advice
appreciated.

Ok, I tried to go to the link, and I'm so confused. I
don't know what to do next. I'm not real computer savy
when it comes to stuff like this...can you explain it for
me? I'm getting frustrated cuz i had sound last week
before we reformatted. what could have happened???

If Kelly's suggestions set your mind abuzz I suggest you enlist the help
of a computer savvy friend, or a competent local shop - not a major retail
store. For a few bucks, they may help to get not only the sound but the
entire system in good shape.
