Sound problem

er ive been having a problem with my computer lately, the sound is off

i tryed turning it on but it wont work. it keeps saying "No audio device installed" idkwhat to do

i have on this computer WindowsXP/vista

i would appreciate help

have you tried checking if your speakers/audio device is correctly plugged into your computer
had the same problem and the jack of the speakers weren't connected right see if this works

Ok, First, go to control panel, and click View devices and printers under hardware and sound, then click your pc, and then go to hardware, try to find your speakers, then click it and look at how its running on the bottom, when u get to that, lol tell me, then ill post what ya do next

i dont have speakers...

sorry i didnt state that

There are a few simple things to check first:

*

Make sure your computer has a sound card.

You must be logged on as an administrator to perform these steps.
1.

Open Device Manager by clicking the Start button Picture of the Start button, clicking Control Panel, clicking System and Maintenance, and then clicking Device Manager.‌ Administrator permission required If you are prompted for an administrator password or confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.
2.

Expand the Sound, video and game controllers category. If a sound card is listed, you have one installed. If no sound card is listed, You will need to install one. See Install or remove a sound card.
