Help! Lost audio in a Vista Home to Vista Ultimate upgrade!
Can anyone help? I was running Vista Home Premium (32 Bit) & upgraded to
Vista Ultimate. After the upgrade I lost 2 key components. One of those being my audio. I went to Dells web site. The list an audio driver "Sigmatel STAC92XX C-Major HD Audio Driver" which is Vista 32 bit compatable. I downloaded & installed it but still no luch. There is a little red x in the tray on the bottom left of my screeen which when clicked says "no audio output deviceis installed". I went into device manager which lists my sound card as "Sigma Tel High Definition Audio Codec" which is listed as working. I am not very computer savy & out of my league, any further suggestions? Thanks in advance for any help! |

Try Deleting your Sound Card in Device Manager - Reboot
Sound Card will be refound and then make sure you have latest Vista Driver installed. "bbsstmez" wrote in message ... Can anyone help?

I have the exact same error with a Gateway NX 860XL laptop. I tried this and
the sound card was re-installed however I still get the message "No audio output device is installed".

Help! Lost audio in a Vista Home to Vista Ultimate upgrade!
This worked for me, too. I have a Dell Inspirion. I just upgraded from Vista
Home Basic to Premium. The sound didn't work after the upgrade. I was very happy to find this fix. I deleted the Sigmatel STAC92XX C-Major HD Audio Driver in the Device Manager and restarted. I was very happy to hear that MS startup chord and not see the red X over the speaker icon when my computer restarted.
