Whats your PC without decent sound? It's a real bummer if you can't listen to your mp3 music, hear surround-sound or high-definition audio while playing games, videos and movies, or while trying to enjoy videos on YouTube or other multimedia sites.
To hear sound from your PC, audio devices such as speakers, headphones or earphones need to be connected to your computer.
However, these devices will not just produce sound because they are connected to your PC, a matching AUDIO DRIVER must be installed for your sound card to work properly.
If audio drivers are missing or if existing ones are corrupt or outdated, then you will encounter these problems:
To solve these audio problems, you need to download the latest audio drivers laser-specific to your sound card, audio device, PC brand and model, and the Windows operating system you are using.
DriverFinder is an advanced driver scanning, updating and downloading utility for Windows-based PCs. By downloading, you agree to have read and accepted the License Agreement and Privacy Policy.

It's easy to know if you have an audio problem. Either you experience poor sound quality or you don't hear any sound at all.
The most common reasons for audio problems are missing, corrupt or outdated drivers. Without the right sound drivers, your PC cannot communicate properly with your sound card, which in turn means no sound from your speakers, headphones or earphones.
Drivers are also often the culprits behind "No Audio Device Installed" error messages. You see, even if you make sure that your audio devices are properly connected to your PC, if the right drivers are not installed, then your system will still not be able to find your audio device.
To fix audio problems, you need to find and install the latest drivers that perfectly match your audio device.
And let me tell you, audio manufacturers release new driver versions all the time! Why? New drivers are the company's way of...
To find the latest audio drivers, you need to know your PC brand and model, your Windows® operating system, your audio device brand and model, and the current audio driver installed on your PC.
After this, you now have to start the laborious, time-consuming, and headache-inducing task of trying to find the most up-to-date audio driver and save it on your PC. And then you need to uninstall your old driver, and install the new driver you found.
And by the way, you need to ensure that this new driver works 100% with your Windows® version and other hardware devices.
However... why update drivers the old-fashioned, uber-time-consuming, error-prone way when DriverFinder gets the job done for you in just about 2 minutes?
Here's just a few of the audio manufacturers supported by award-winning driver DriverFinder: Aztech Labs, Asus, CMedia, Creative Labs, Realtek, Logitech, Samsung, SoundMAX, Yamaha, and hundreds more!
Features | DriverFinder | Other Update Tools |
---|---|---|
Ease of Use | Highly-intuitive interface enables you to scan, download, update and install drivers to your PC without fuss. | Uses complicated interface. Disadvantage: You feel you need to go through a 'tech course' to use the application. |
Scanning Efficiency | Accurately detects your PC brand & model, and ALL hardware devices connected to it, including unplugged devices such as your USB webcam, MP3 player, and more! | Misses some of your hardware devices. No support for unplugged devices. Disadvantage: You miss out on updated drivers intended for these overlooked devices. |
Database Size | Supports more than 100,000 unique hardware devices... and counting! | Supports 50,000 unique hardware devices at most. Disadvantage: You miss out on updated drivers intended for your PC and/or driver 'updates' provided to you are old. |
Driver Integrity | Uses a unique combination of (1) automated crawlers, (2) electronic driver file analyzers, and (3) manual checking by computer professionals BEFORE driver files are added to our database! | Uses substandard technology or applies a very manual way of finding and cataloging drivers. Disadvantage: Slow database population. Plus, this is prone to incorrect driver classification. If you download and install a driver NOT suited to your PC, this may cause your system to crash. |
Hourly Updates! | Employs 24/7/365 automated crawlers and analyzers. If there's a driver update out there, we'll be the first to know about it! | Once-in-a-while, irregular updates; weekly checks at most. Disadvantage: The updates you get are 'old news'. |
Download Speed | Driver downloads are sourced from manufacturers AND relayed over our hi-speed data storage infrastructure. Data storage proudly serviced by Amazon Web Sevices. | Driver downloads are sourced only from manufacturer web sites. Disadvantage: If the driver manufacturer (e.g., HP) is down, you don't get your driver. Also, a lot of driver files are HUGE. It may take a long time to download them to your PC. |
System Compatibility | Fully compatible with all Windows OS versions, including Windows XP (32- and 64-bit), Windows Vista (32- and 64-bit), and Windows 7 (32- and 64-bit). | Most will not support 64-bit systems; one or two may support Vista 64-bit. Disadvantage: Windows 64-bit systems require 64-bit drivers. Period. If the update tool does not support your 64-bit system, the update tool is useless. |
Customer Support | Comprehensive. Includes KnowledgeBase, online manuals, license support, FAQ and email support. Plus, we apply a 24-hour guaranteed response time for all correspondence! | Poor customer service. Disadvantage: Your questions and concerns fall on deaf ears. |
