Thank you for the reply - I read that when asking for help not to use the General topic so thats why I put it in under the other heading. My sound only came back last week after being off for months. IT couldnt find anything wrong with it either. Then I ran the scan and now its gone again. Im so upset!!! I checked in Sound, video and game controllers and its SoundMAX Integraged Digital HD Audio is listed and in the properties it says its working correctly and Device usage is listed as enable. Is that what you mean? Thanks for your help. I really appreciate it.
