    External speakers not working


    When I turn on the computer I see a message that states 'audio output device is not installed'. The speakers have been attached to another computer and work fine. They worked fine last week.

    Hi Funkyecat.

    What version and build are you on. Windows Key +R, type winver, enter.

    In device manager are there any yellow exclamation marks.

    You said you get this when you turn computer on, I assume this means power up from cold machine. Does the audio work if you restart computer?

    Does this only happen when you power on machine?

    What adapter do you have for sound? Have you tried rolling back driver?

    Believe it or not. After reviewing only 2 pages (or 7 of 'Black Viper's' service recommendations they are working.
    Thanx anyway.
