No audio devices installed... Closed

Question

A friend of mine came over and ran some updates and cleaned up my system.  He told me he didn't do anything with the sound.  Now I am not able to hear any sound from my computer.  I have an HDMI cable running to my HDTV and the sound usually plays through my stereo system.  Cables are all connected properly. When I click on the sound manager it says there are no audio devices plugged into the system.  When I click on devices it says that windows cannot play audio because Windows audio service is not enabled. Would you like to enable it?  I click yes...it says no audio devices are installed.  Sound is not muted. I went into system, then device manager and double clicked on sound, video and game controllers. It shows two items:  Intel(R) High Definition Audio HDMI and Realtek High Definition Audio.  Right click each one, properties and then the driver tab. Both are updated and enabled.  I do not know what to do.  Any help or guidance would be much appreciated!

I tried uninstalling and re-installing the audio driver. This did not fix the issue.  I still have no sound.  Still saying that the device is working properly and up to date.  I am completely at a loss.  Also today the computer went into sleep mode and I had to restart the system to get it out.
