Audio driver problem

Hi guys im gonna ask for help
my audio has a problem that I dont really understand
1st is the volume icon on the tray has x on it and when I try to click it the toubleshooter comes up and `detect` the problem and then it suggest that I reinstal it which I did apply the fix. and then it says realtek AC 97 audio has a driver problem. ive been seraching for a fix in over a week now and its tiring....
im running on windows 7 32-bit 1.5gb ram dual core processor

pls help guys thanks in advance
 
Have you gone into Control Panel>Sounds & check it out in there? I too have had an X on mine from time to time but usually just a reboot fixes it.
 
Yes sir tried to surf the net for solution. when I slide my pointer on the volume control it says no audio output device installed
 
These are the problems I encounter as you can see I have the driver but it says it needs to be reinstalled. tried that but it nothing happened it errors again. :(

1. Not sure which steps you followed to reinstalled the driver but you should
> Open CtlPnl->Programs and Features. Look for the Realtek audio driver and uninstall it from there
> Go to Realtek website and download/install the AC97 driver from there

2. If still a problem try the MS Audio Fixit HERE
