Hello!
I built my computer a few months ago with Windows 7. Everything was working fine until this afternoon, but suddenly my audio device isn't recognizing anything and I can't listen to anything anymore. I've tried installing different drivers and reinstalling the one provided with the motherboard CD, but nothing works and I really don’t know what more I can do. My sound card is recognized in the BIOS, so it must be a driver issue.
If anyone has an idea of what my problem could be, I would appreciate some clarification; it would really annoy me to have to reinstall Windows without being sure of the outcome...
I can provide the components in detail if it's clearer.
Thank you for your response.

I installed it, but it doesn't change anything. I think I already tried this driver; the problem must be coming from somewhere else.
-
Go to Start
In the search bar
Type: devmgmt.msc and OK.
See if there are any question marks and which ones?
If so, right-click on the device
Properties
Details tab
Give the hardware identifier number.
To find the identifier number, look -->> here <<--
Also provide the list that appears in audio controllers.

There's only one item, ATI HDMI Audio.
Could my problem come from a cable that's too worn (I doubt it, but still) between my motherboard and the USB ports? -
Go into the BIOS and check if the audio device is enabled, set to enable.
Look in on-board device and/or integrated peripherals.

It was activated, I deactivated it, I restarted and then I reactivated it. I changed the order of the components to start first and I put the sound card in second, the icon no longer indicates "mute" but the volume percentage. However, I still can't hear anything.
-
Oh, it actually works... The sound card probably didn't start automatically. Thank you for your advice and your patience, Kaneagle, you've really helped me out :)

Happy for you,
Have a nice day.
