Windows 7 no sound
Hello everyone! I've recently bought a Medion Laptop which had a Windows Vista OS. Because I'm not a big fan of that OS, I've installed Windows 7 Ultimate/32 bit. After installing it, I had no sound or wireless connection. I've fixed the wirelless connection (hardly), but still couldn't fix the sound. And thrust me, I'm no begginer at this. But, since I can't fix this on my own, I'm asking for your help. My laptop model is Medion MD96370 (also says CM2 above that writing), motherboard is WIM2170, Serial Number from bottom of my laptop is SN :30007436. I've tried everything, I've searched and instaled\desins

Go online and find/install the Vista audio driver for your computer. One complaint about Win 7 is drivers but you should find the Vista drivers work. You might also want to try the wireless drivers for Vista as well. Don't use the Medion drivers--use the Vista drivers from Microsoft.
Here is a link for the free driver for your audio card. Good luck. http://www.driveridentifier.com/scan/dow...
Have you tried a driver for your sound card?
oldturkey03,
I've tried every driver from medion site...Germany and Uk too, still, no results!
Xarius,
Does your sound card show in your BIOS as enabled?
oldturkey03,
Yesterday, I've installed Windows Vista home premium on a Virtual machine (Virtualbox). After installing it, I've checked device manager and there, by audio devices showd "Intel(r) 82801AA AC'97 Audio controler". But after I restarted the machine, the same problem appeared. My laptop had no sound. :(. I just don't know what to do anymore. :(
Xarius,
So you show your audio device under XP, but not under Win7? Sounds like a definite driver issue
