-   had sound this morning, but no sound in headphones now, my nvidia graphics screwed up and when i fixed that, i had no sound-   shayna64
Can you try to use a different driver to get your sound back, instead of the realtek? This would involve going to Start - Control panel - Sounds and Audio Devices, and for "audio" selecting a different playback device. Perhaps the realtek driver installation made a choice for you that needs to be changed back to match your hardware.
My second recommendation would be to uninstall the Realtek audio driver... if the first thing doesn't solve your problem.

- Here is Realtek's site: http://www.realtek.com.tw/DOWNLOADS/downloadsCheck.aspx?Langid=1&PNid=23&PFid=23&Level=4&Conn=3&DownTypeID=3&GetDown=false
In googling this, I see that there seem to be a few different ones: Realtek AC97 audio controllers Realtek High Definition audio drivers
Do you know which you have? Is this a laptop, or PC? If a PC is it on the motherboard, or a separate audio card? Here are some links for you below.

Code 10 This is the only devise under hardware that is not working properly. Thank you in advance for your help!
