SA/SAMP says that I have no audio card but I have one

[wayneehh]

(and I hear error sounds so it means its working)
soo... all started after my installation of AIMP3 player (that also installs ASIO4ALL) my sound worked nowhere after I installed it, it only worked in that player than I tried reinstalling my codec and audio driver and it didn't help than I tried reinstalling my windows but my CD has a corrupted file uSOMETHING.sys so my windows setup fails than I tried system restore and notthing than I uninstalled AIMP3 and... also notthing than I installed it back and the sound didn't work in it also... God help me I really need to come ingame today D:

Try to do a system restore to a date when SA / SAMP worked properly.

Control panel > Performance and Maintenance > System recovery.
(Make sure your control panel is on category view, not on classic view.)

Nononononono, Stop, wait, breathe.

Update your drivers.

[Gandalf]

In works case go to device control and delete your sound drivers. On restart Windows will re-install them correctly in 99% of the cases.

To be sure delte all. I believe the Legacy are the ones that cause disturbance and the Realtek is the one that should be there.
After you remove, restart the computer and wait for it to install the sound drivers.

Your image host is having issues. Can you upload the image somewhere else please?

okay I removed realtek but I cant remove the others when I hit delete notthing appears or dissapears, I restarted my PC and installed realtek R2.66 now I'm restarting it again to see results wait up

[SugarD]

Yes, only remove the Realtek. Also, uninstall that program via the Control Panel > Add/Remove Programs section that you said caused the issue. It likely has it's own special audio virtual driver that is conflicting with your's, or it's so poorly coded that it's just incompatible with your system and caused a conflict.

[wayneehh]

I removed realtek and installed it again and notthing :| and sugar I did remove the program too its same still...

Going into your Volume controls and make sure the volume was turned back up. Look for any buttons called "Advanced" in there, and if you see anything containing the word "Digital" by the checkbox, uncheck it and see if your sound works. Some speakers don't work with digital sound output, and XP likes to enable it sometimes without telling you :P

Sound card life has over?Maybe need a new one?

[9r2e5i3k]

After you uninstalled your sound chip drivers, google out and install the proper ones.

If it's a dedicated sound card, just google for the model's drivers. ignore, realtek most likely means integrated

If it's an integrated chip with your motherboard, google your motherboard's official site, go to the 'download' section and download the driver.

Do you have any sound devices plugged in? If not, plug them in.

I had the same problem when I unplugged my headset, it told me this. I plugged it back in, and it was fine.
