Status: offline 		Wondering if any one has an idea why i lost my audio yesterday on line? I was at a site and it just vanished. I can't hear anything but my volume control is half way up. Some suggestions of what it could be would help me in my search for the culprit. Could it be the failure of the audio on the motherboard?

I lost it in all cases games as well. I resolved it. It seems somehow my realtek driver was affected by whatever happened. I uninstalled the driver and then reinstalled a downloadable realtek driver from Realtek Site. Thank you for getting back to me Paulus.

After reinstalling the realtek driver sound was back. But when I turned off my computer the next day i turned it back on again no sound for games as well. What is the issue any ideas?

So I went in to look and to be truthful I'm not sure what I'm looking at nor not sure what i did pressed some buttons restarted computer and volume is back. Who knows if the fix is permanent. It could be tonight when I turn off the computer, tomorrow when I turn it on there could be sound or maybe there won't be. Right now I'll take the fix, whatever it was, and be happy its working again.

Because it is Windows?
