'No Audio Output Devices Installed'

[c_marriott]

I've just turned on my PC after 2 days of not using it and it's now saying I have no audio devices installed. I went into device manager and it said that the drivers are corrupted but when I uninstall and reinstall it doesn't fix them at all.

Here's some images.

As you can see I have no 'Sound, video or Game controller' section

Whenever I use the troubleshooter it just says this

Any help would be great as I've been struggling for the last 2 hours

Cannot think of any miracle cures ... 

So start at the beginning ...

1) Check the Motherboard is clean and no obvious issues (puffed up capacitors etc).

2) reseat all cables and cards - make sure nothing loose.

3) triple check nothing is misconfigured in BIOS ... and you are not loosing settings or anything like that (CMOS battery not flat.).

4) r4.31 looks like the current driver.  Make sure you have it installed.http://www.gigabyte.com.au/products/product-page.aspx?pid=4591#dl 

5) completely remove the existing drivers, then reboot.   if drivers not autofound then scan for changes (rebooting sometimes produces better outcome than deleting drivers and then scanning for changes).    After a reboot scan for changes anyway.

 

Good luck.   Worst case is dodgy mobo.   best case is just got corrupt driver.

Hi, will give reseating the cables ago. I had tried installing the most recent drivers with no luck. I also went into the bios and double checked everything, no luck there either.
