No Audio at all :(

[itsaluvhatething]

I shut down my comp one nite opened it the next and now my audio is completely gone. My computer can't detect it, says it doesnt exist and when i try and download an audio driver (i think thats what its called) it says i have no device to support it. I can see it under my services under the configuration utility (once again i think thats wut its called) but it says that status is stopped unlike everything else which has a status of running. When I lost my audio it changed the layout of my comp to what looks to be an old version of windows (dont know if thats a completely different problem) and the charger randomly stopped working. Don't know if this is all one big problem connected to each other or a couple that just happened to occur all at once. HELP!!!

What make/model of computer do you have?
What is showing in Device Manager? Do any items have a yellow exclaimation mark next to it?
The layout may be due to graphics drivers or a resolution change. See Display control panel to change it.

My comp is a Dell Inspiron 1505 there is no exclamation marks next to anything it just says that the status of my windows audio is stopped and almost everything else says its running.

Open Services.msc console and check that the 'Windows Audio' service is running.
