1191353 2011-04-02 03:21:00 Hi, as the title suggests, i have lost all sounds on my laptop.
In device manager/ sound video and game control's, double clicking audio codecs - it displays this device is working properly, but device usage is blank.
Same thing with legacy audio drivers,
legacy video capture devices
media control devices

But with the next one -realtec AC97 audio - it says its working but with this one only, it displays device usage - use this device [enable ]

I am running xp [sp3], on a toshiba laptop tecra A3.

appreciate any help,
thanks

One thing you can try, run system restore back to yesterday (assuming it was working then)

1191355 2011-04-02 03:29:00 Thanks for the quick reply, unfortunatly system restore had been turned off, can't think of any changes, was working yesterday but no sounds today. Tomy101 (12106)
1191356 2011-04-02 05:41:00 This is driving me nuts, i just done repair installation of xp and still no sound, no yellow marks in device manager, mute all is not ticked, no system sounds, got me knackered. Tomy101 (12106)
