papercut2008uk Posted August 22, 2016 Share Posted August 22, 2016 are your speakers working? check the fuse in the plug, some speakers have a seperate fuse in the sub/amp. to find out if it's your speakers or the sound card/drivers, do you have the speaker icon? the sound mixer? if you do, then play a video or something with sound and see if it's shown in the mixer to be putting out sound.

Buttus Posted August 22, 2016 Share Posted August 22, 2016 or usually your speakers will have the regular 3.5mm audio jack, just plug it in to your phone to see if it plays Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

papercut2008uk Posted August 22, 2016 Share Posted August 22, 2016 hover the mouse over the icon and see what it says (if anything) open 'Device manager' and see if there is a driver issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nick H. Supervisor Posted August 22, 2016 Supervisor Share Posted August 22, 2016 I've had something similar with the anniversary update. You need to go playback devices (right-click on the sound icon) then disable and re-enable the device. Maybe that will do it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

papercut2008uk Posted August 22, 2016 Share Posted August 22, 2016 scan for new hardware, or you can show hidden devices in device manager 'click view' and they should show up again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What if you disable it, physically unplug the system then plug it back in? The screenshot definitely shows that right now it's both disabled and unplugged.

I had to play around a bit with that to get it back to the actual sound device. 1 minute ago, killer0pro said: This device cannot start.

papercut2008uk Posted August 22, 2016 Share Posted August 22, 2016 lets start from the start, are you connected with HDMI or through a sound card/motherboard output? what speakers are they? the power loss could be a factor in this, but it also could be coincidental.

papercut2008uk Posted August 22, 2016 Share Posted August 22, 2016 have you tried downloading and installing the latest drivers for the sound card/chip on the motherboard? you can find them if you search for the motherboard model (if you don't know the model, you can use Speccy to find out, just search for Speccy). find the manufacturers page for the motherboard, in the download/support section you can find the drivers for the sound card. see if that works.

Louisifer Posted August 22, 2016 Share Posted August 22, 2016 You could try a static discharge, unplug the pc from the mains and then hold the power button down for around 30 seconds, then boot up normally. built up static from power fluctuations has been known to mess with ports and in some cases stops the computer starting up.

papercut2008uk Posted August 22, 2016 Share Posted August 22, 2016 does it still show them as 'disabled, unplugged'? if none of this has worked, then it's probably pointing to something being damaged, possibly a damaged cable or something like that.
