Unhappy No audio device detected!
I have a gateway desktop and everything was working fine. Then I was cleaning out my Add/Remove programs and I accidentally deleted SOUNDMAX. Then, my sound stopped working but my speakers are still on and plugged in properly. Sound properties are gray & say "no audio device detected". What do I do?!

then go to accessories and then system tools you will see system restore at the bottom of the list.
