re: Windows reports ''no audio device'' Tuesday, October 14, 2003 at 10:52 pm Windows XP Annoyances Discussion Forum Posted by Wilford (1 messages posted) Hi, Fred, You probably need to install the driver for your audio device, whether it is an onboard device or a plug-in device. There is no need to follow the instruction in the previous discussion by going through … --> [Device Manager]--> …, [Sound], … etc. Once the drive is installed by a setup program, every relevant file will be automatically upgraded. Then the 'no audio device" message should disappear. Ignore about Microsoft driver or installation guide, the instruction is just not clear enough. That was why there had been problems. Someone said this was due to a virus, but it wasn't. You can reformat the whole disc, and the problem will still be there. Good luck.
