Thanks! I went to Control panel, opened up sound, then I right-clicked and chose show disabled devices. Then I enabled them. I got my headphones reinstalled, clicked advanced, and put them in a 2 channel 16 bit 48000 dvd quality. After this I checked the box to allow the headphones to take over, and they work now. :)

Answer 3 / 48

WOW!
After all these times I figured out how to do this O_o....
OK first
Go right click Computer (Vista) My computer(XP)
Click Mange
Click Continue (lol)
Then click on Device Manager (I know I know everyone told you to do this but this has a twist that worked on mine :D)
Right click your computer name (Should be the top one)
then Then THEN ThEn tHeN click Add Legacy hardware
then click next
Choose the Advanced one where you do it manually
then click on sounds,video, and game controllers
Then click next then wait till it loads all the sound cards
Click the sound card you are familiar with (Me Realtek)
then click on that and then the one in there then next
then click next again to install
THEN youre done... But I recommend you restart you computer or laptop to make sure it works
if not then find another sound card that is better :D
Goo luck O_O

Answer 4 / 48

GUYS SERIOUSLY this is what you do: you right-click on My Computer, and click manage. [then choose continue]

Then go to Device Manager, which is on the left hand side.

Then right-click on the computer name, and click 'Scan for hardware changes'.

Everything should then be back to normal!

nothing still happens when i done every thing you have said.it scan for device driver for about 3 minutes and it says you have not install device driver.
Answer 5 / 48

I just had the no audio output device installed message, to re-activate it just goto control panel,system,device manager, go down to sound, video & game controllers then you should have real-tek audio click on this then goto the driver tab, and disable, then wait a moment and then click enable. It just worked for me anyway!!!

Report

Go to control panel then go to the sound tab and then manage audio device, there you should right klick on the headset icon and choose "use as standard unit" or something similar. It's written beneath "inactivate. I'm not sure that "use as standard unit" is the right words ( mine are in written in swedish) but something similar.

hi to ya;-),
you only have to go to control panel and enable the sound device as it has surely been disable thats all
Answer 13 / 48

seriously....if windows installs new updates automatically...you tend to lose your sound system.........ive tried everything that people have wrote...and it doesnt work.

the best thing to do is go to control panel......look for backup & restore system.........let the computer do the rest...it will fix changes that window made while installing new info...follow insturctions...it will shut down and restart......and im telling you it works..........thats the only way I ever get my sound back.........i use laptop windows vista..

try it

Answer 15 / 48

In english

Go to controll panel then go to the sound tab and then manage audio device there you should right klick on the headset icon and choose "use as standard unit" or something similar. It's written beneath "inactivate. I'm not sure that "use as standard unit" is the right words but something similar.


In swedish

Gå till kontrollpanelen sedan maskinvara och ljud och under ljud finns en underrubrik kallad hantera ljudenheter,
in där och högerklicka sedan på hörluren och välj "ange som standardenhet".
Om det inte funkar kan ni prova att högerklicka på hörluren eller om hörluren inte finns högerklicka då på det tomma där och välj "visa inaktiverade enheter"

If you "Right Click" on My Comptuer, go to the "Properties" tab, click on hardware tab and then Device manager you will probably see an "Unknown Device" in the list! That is the "missing" audio drivers!
