check out if your sound card is inserted properly and all connections are proper.Also try to take out sound card and test if u get audio from on-board audio jack.

If u can then take your sound card in your friend's home and test on his computer if it works properly or not!!

You may also lead to technical help.go to a qualified engineer and get it repaired.

I have not brought any soundcard, i mean the inbuilt soundcard

Try MY computer-> Manage->Device Manager-> Sounds And Devices.

Check if any caution sign indicating a problem exists...if so reinstall the drivers...

if this doesnt work try mebbe a linux live CD and chk if its an OS issue...

if it still doesnt work... contact the service center...

I mailed the issue to intel support and there assistance was quick.

do u have Intel D946GZis board?

I'd also faced the same problem but my onboard sound had went kaput and I got no replacement from Intel, they said its a physical damage , so I just added a sound card.

i will give my motherboard to DtDc courier person who will come at my residence to pick up the mobo
hope they give me a replacement.

they have asked me to replace the PnP cap b4 submitting the board

Well i thinhk that you should call to a computer engineer as he can solve your problem quickly because of thier experience and if not than you can download sound software.......

Forgot to close the thread. intel gave me a replacement
