Has the 3 coloured plugs going to a little box in the computer But got no sound go to control panel sounds volume tab is greyed out says no audio device, audio tab is greyed out. Device manger under other devices has yellow marks for multi media audio controller and video controller (vga compatible) At a loss where to start Thanks	prefect (6291)

Download them, then install them The multi media audio controller are probably the soundcard drivers The video controller you'll have to find out what the videocard is on it, and then download the drivers then install them	Speedy Gonzales (78)

697850	2008-08-17 02:50:00	The sound will be onboard it doesnt need a card. Same goes for the video. Its probably onboard / on the mobo. Go to the site like I said and download both of them	Speedy Gonzales (78)

Tryed with video file but needs to installed some other way will look at it tommorow. Is the video system required for web browsing?
