Hi,
I have a compaq presario V6500 which came installed with Windows Vista. I recently upgraded my OS to Windows 8 (last month). Today, just like that, the sound was lost, while I was listening to a tutorial online. The sound icon on the desktop taskbar says "No Audio Output Device is installed". When I trouble shoot it, by clicking on it, I get these messages, and no other solution-
I went into Device Manager and tried to figure out whats wrong. Under "Other devices", I see an exclamation with "Coprocessor". When I click on it, this is what I see-
Device type: Other devices
Manufacturer: Unknown
Location: PCI bus 0, device 1, function 3
Device Status: The drivers for this device are not installed. (Code 28) To find a driver for this device, click Update Driver.
When I click Update Driver, windows is not able to find a driver (even online).
I also cannot see any icon for sound/audio devices under Device Manager.
I'm not sure what to do about this. I'm not very tech savvy. Can someone help me out with this problem?
Thank you!
