@Claudiu – I do not find any exact match on that audio device hardware id, but the “HDAUDIO\FUNC_01&VEN_8384&DEV_7680″ device should be compatible, and there are plenty of Sigmatel drivers around for that. But you might indeed end up doing a trial and error if the expected driver does not work.
Please also check the MS UAA driver for you SP level, the one I gave is for SP1. For SP2, a different update is required.

@Kirk M. Palermo – The “one day” is a bit strange, something must have happened that triggered the problem with the audio device. Maybe a Windows update was installed? Did you already try a system restore to see if a previous configuration works?

I have realtek AC’97 it was working fine.. then one day I turned on my PC and no sound except System sounds… Like the Dings and the Beeps… No it says (no audio device)Under “sounds and audio device properties” Volume Tab. and under the Audio Tab it says “No play back devices” so I went to services.msc and Started the service… but it didn’t work… and just like some of the other Posts everything looks good under the device manager … Please help … It worked for years .. now I can’t watch Netflix or listen to Music… P.S. I just started subscribing to Netflix.. and that is when the problem seems to have started…

Thank you in Advance for your help.

Kirk.

With another such software I got the information this might be an ASUS motherboard so…I am a bit confused as I cannot know for sure so I cannot know which UAA bus driver to use.
The issue is that the PC was in another office and nobody has the Driver CD but I heard from one of the IT guys that sound was working before I reformatted so I believe it may be a Windows error of some sort. Maybe tomorrow I will re-install unless I find a resolution.

Cheers

@Claudiu – Are you certain you have the right Sigmatel audio driver? It seems to me that that driver might actually cause the problem, and there are a lot of different Sigmatel and IDT audio driver variations.
What is your motherboard model?

I ran the test again.
I uninstalled all of them, rebooted. Then all the hidden devices that were inactive turned to active. After reinstalling the SigmaTel Codec, it looks like it deactivated everything else, which got the error code [45 Device not connected].
