No sound from my M8095A!

[schmidtp2]

Hi all,

I am currently using a HP M8095A desktop Multimedia PC, but I am having a small problem with it ... It seems as though I am getting no analogue sound! I get sound come through the HDMI, yet for some reason, I am unable to get sound through the front or rear speaker ports.

I have taken the following action with no luck:

- Uninstall and reinstall drivers

- System restore

- Windows and HP updates

- Microsoft HotFix

- Changed all the audio output configurations (all I can get is HDMI, it doesn't even give me an option for speakers)

In my device manager, I am showing an unknown device simply labelled "Multimedia Controller" that claims to have no installed drivers and is configured incorrectly.

The sound card is on board and not PCI-E so unfortunately I cannot simply move the card to another port. I am running Windows Vista.

I am running short of options! Can anyone please help??

Cheers,

Peter
