I had my computer reformatted, everything worked great, in fact better than it used to. After a month or so, it stopped playing any sound at all it makes beeps now. I uninstall the hardware in the Device Manager and then reinstall it but it does not fix the problem. I tried looking up the driver install download on the brands website but to no avail.

Can it be fixed? Or is it kissed?

what kinds of beeps?
do they come out of any speakers connected to the sound card or the computer itself?

if it is Windows it mainly beeps when the sound card drive is not working, and you need to find a working driver for your Sound Card.
