omfg you have the same problem as i do, my computer says windows vista capable, i installed vista premium and when i put my cursor over the mouse it says no audio output device is installed???!??! wwtf,

Hello dear cyberfriends,

I have the same problem with my new Fujitsu-Siemens laptop.
I am trying to solve the problem....

Coming soon!

Check your device manager. If theres a yellow question mark where the sound card is you need to update the drivers. If however theres no yellow question mark you may need to right-click on the sound card and click propeties. Then either find a setting that enables them or roll back the driver.

Have installed twice (just for fun and to record all steps for future ref works fine on both but little slow on L7300)

Sound card problem will be fixed automatically when you go to windows update. Clever thing this vista.

Pleas do the following:

1)Open the Device Manager ( can be accessed from Control Panel)
2)Click on the "Sound, Videogame Controllers,etc." and a sub option with your particular device will appear.
3)click on the sub option.
4) click "Divers" on top (middle option).
5) Then click "enable" to enable you driver.
6) Click "update" (right above Enable).
7) A series of message boses will appear. Click on the (recommended) ones.
You Audio device will be installed. Good Luck. Hope this helps.

No audio output device is installed
Does anyone know how to fix the X on the sound icon, it worked just fine b-fore i installed windows vista...It seems like a lot of people have the same problem. I tried everything i know.

Thank you sooooooo much. This link that is displayed really works. I have used windows vista home premium for a year on a HP Pavilion dv6000 and it fixed my problem right away. Just install it and your done!
My computer had the X on top of the speaker icon and said no audio device installed. This link works to re-install the speakers!
