Thanks a lot Platypus,

But I am not aware which drivers I have to choose for audio and video controllers.

Tried Realtek AC'97 Audio Driver Update but still no sound working.

Kindly assist.......Thanks again for your reply.

Scroll down a bit further and you will find a list for the Original Drivers - try the original audio driver.

Before you do that though install the chipset drivers from intel first Restart the machine and then try the sound drivers again.

http://downloadcenter.intel.com/Filt...%20Systems#DRV

it has got 12 drivers......which one should I download....I am not aware.

Kindly assist...Thanks again for your reply.

I linked you directly to the right one - however, from your link you want no 12.

ooops, noticed my link wasn't the right one... misclick I guess, sorry - you want the chipset drivers which are number 12
