please help me get my sound back - no audio device

Mar 4, 2005 6:03PM PST

I was uninstalling some programs and I wasn't paying attention and I think I uninstalled my audio device. Under "Sounds and Audio Devices" in Control Panel it says I have no audio device. The only sound I can get now is the beeps.

I have a Toshiba Satellite laptop with Win XP.

I've tried reading other posts and the Help section in Windows and I can't figure out how to get my sound back.

Please help!

Maybe you should contact the manufacturer and get a driver for it.
