ok so the information we have to help you is: I system restored and now theres no sound, and how do you expect us to help you then?
do you know what sound card you have?
do you know if the volume bar is responding or is there a red x on the speaker icon?

questions bring answers, answers bring solutions

Hi djcag, have you checked the usual suspects:

Volume control muted (right click volume icon on taskbar and check tick boxes)

Sound device still installed (red cross on sound icon. if you have a red cross check your device manager. Control panel>device manager>Sound, Video and game controllers. if no sound device shows, then it's probably been uninstalled)

It is very important to give the detail information about the issue that you are faing with the system - If you do not have sound check weather the connection of the speakers are proper as your nephew's play with the system - check the volume on the speaker and in windows - Is there power on the speaker - Is there a bang on the Device in device manager - If it is there then install the Drivers for the Device intgreted or Sound Card - Try using a Headphone or connect the speaker to the front of the system and check weather it is working.....

Hi smartyball and jerin,
Had checked that (limited knowledge) however after a restart and shutdown all is good. Sorry to waste your time, but thanks for the advise for future reference.

Hi mrneeds,
thanks for your abrupt and rude reply.

abrupt and rude indeed, you will see that all our "geeks" deal with several problems everyday and we need information to fix problems, no information = no solutions.
