Ok, have been hunting for the answer and can't seem to get it anywhere, so here I am.

I've got a Compaq Presario CQ61, Windows 7 SP1 installed, fully patched. I've got no sound from internal speakers and headphone jacks.

I've unistalled drivers and re-installed, I've used DriverMax to find drivers aswell, un-installed and reinstalled. No luck.

Link Removed

Thats what's showing in my Device Manager. Volume Control is not muted, and maxed out for volume, and there is movement when clicking on the volume control just no sound.

Any ideas?

Thank you for any help.

If the sound does not appear immediately, reboot and see if it is working. reconnect and you, hopefully, are back in business.

Ok. I can only further suggest, if the Windows 7 driver on the link, did not work, try the first one (Vista) in compatibility mode. .
