I bought a cheap Compaq laptop that came with Vista Home Premium. The speed was horrendous! Anyway, I received the same no hard drive found error. To solve the problem, I went into the system config (BIOS) by pressing F10 on startup, and turned off SATA hard drive support (its supposed to make the hard drive run faster), I rebooted, inserted my Win XP Pro disc and viola, it detected the hard drive. I would say that the laptop runs a good 40% faster than before. Vista is a big no no when it comes to low end laptops built for word processing and internet browsing.

Microsoft moved the particular option that you need to enable since Windows XP, and have also changed its default to MUTE.
To hear what is playing through MIC IN...
I really hope that this has solved your problem, if it has not, please let me know and I will do my best to help you further. Good Luck!

Hi Yoni,
The most likely reson why you still don't have sound is you were not able to install the sound card driver properly. I suggest you goto CONTROL PANEL then click on ADD/REMOVE PROGRAMS then uninstall all the software/drivers related to your sound card, afterwards restart the computer. Then try reinstalling the sound driver again using the correct Sound Card driver disc. It should work.
Of course downloading the latest drivers for your sound card is always a very goof advise. Check your computer manual or your computer's specifications to know what sound card you actually have in the system. Even calling for techsupport if you bought this from a manufacturer is even better. If you have the information. Goto your computer manufaturers website and get. Otherwise you can download it from the soundcard manufacturer's website directly. Make sure to download the correct driver, since it's not going to fix your problem if you get the wrong one and it may cause problems.
I also suggest that you check if your sound card is still detected by the PC and if it's showing up. You can do this by going to right-click on MY COMPUTER, select PROPERTIES then goto the HARDWARE tab then select the button for DEVICE MANGER. Check if there is any "?" question mark symbol or "!" exclamation mark symbol. Most likely that is your sound card. If there is a red "X" then the device is disabled, you can right-click on it thn select ENABLE to mak it run again. If there is not an item with any of those symbol, you can check SOUND VIDEO AND GAME CONTROLLERS category and see if your soundcard is listed there.
For most systems there is an option in the BIOS to disable the soundcard (especially if its integrated!) check the BIOS to see if the soundcard was disabled there. Check the manual of your computer or motherboard to see how you can get into it.
Finally, I also suggest running your computer's diagnostics, if it has one. This gives you a better picture if the problem is hardware (sound card itself) or software (drivers).
Hop these suggestions help!
Peace! :)
