Did you restart your computer?

Sounds obvious and stupid, but its overlooked a lot and i accidentally broke my sound once, restarting my comp fixed it.

Also check and see if there are any windows updates regarding sound.

(idk what "quickbar" is, or if you have win7, but the other posts with solutions have the same steps, but start at "control panel")

[quote="forester07"]Windows 7 Fix.

Right Click on the sound icon in the quickbar.

Go to recording devices and left click.

Right click anywhere in the main box and check show disable devices.

Enable stero mix

Your game should work with sound now. [/quote]
