HP ProDesk 600 G3 Base Model Microtower PC

Couple of days ago my PC lost it's sound.  I have tried the recovery manager, looking online and cannot find a way to get it back.  When I put the mouse over the speaker icon on the bottom right a message comes up:  "No Audio Output Device is installed".  I am at the end of my rope.  The PC has no pci or pci-e slots in it.  I know it was not an expensive computer but it works great other than the sound.  I would like to fix it.  Any Help would be appreciated.

Thanks

I would look in Device Manager for the sound hardware to note the if any devices have a note or symbol indicating a problem with the drivers.  Then look for that hardware ID to get the correct driver installed.

I suspect some "software update" corrupted the driver.
