No Sound....IT geeks help needed

[bully]

Stupid Dell laptop caught aids and had new harddrive put in it by the Geeks at work

Sound doesnt work now, used to.

What am i doing wrong, it is probably something stupid.

I have checked the volume etc on Control panel and set it as laptop mono and laptop stereo still didnt work.

No sounds whatsoever even system ones.

Anyone?

Installed the sound/chipset drivers?

Go to Control Panel > System > Hardware > Device manager

Does anything have a yellow exclamation mark next to it?

 

[bully]

no, it all looks ok...ar*e

go to the control pannel and click the sounds, speech and audio devices, then click the sounds and audio devices and click on the hardware, also try installing the audio drivers again

Go to http://driveragent.com/?PHPSESSID=146cc625e876555bcada89aee8d6e0ac Do a scan, It will then tell you if you have drives/Up2date if it tells you your sound drive isn't up2date update it.

Could it be something simple such as the integrated volume control is down (the speaker icon in the bottom right)
