I purchased a PC about a year from now. Everything worked flawlessly until about a month ago. My sound became inaudible. At first i called the soundcard company and they sent me a new one. That didn't solve it. I tried 3 different types of sound cards. None of them helped. So, it can't be a sound card problem.

The device installs flawlessly, the console shows activity so i know its detecting audio. I checked the volume bar, device manager...etc. But still can't figure out what the problem is.

I have a strong feeling there's some kind of conflict going on. But i have no idea where. If anyone has any insight as to how i can solve this problem, the help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Have you checked to see if you are actually getting output with a pair of headphones?

Is the sound muted by any chance in the control panel?

I checked it with two different pairs of headphones. The sound is on maximum volume. I still can't hear the audio. Sometimes there are pops and clicks and with my other soundcard, the sound is VERY faint, hardly audible at all.
