I recall when I upgraded my Toshiba laptop to Vista I had no sound with a Realtek soundcard and latest drivers installed, if you get no further I will try to recall how I solved it.

I think in my case the sound was muted before I upgraded and then once upgraded it remains so and the console unmute button had no effect

Have you actually installed the new drivers, David?  Code 43 indicates there's still a driver issue, according to this.

Is the installed driver in sound and audio properties the same version as the one highlighted by Glen? Suggest try to reinstall pointing it at the Realtek directory containing the latest driver or try rescan for hardware changes.

Just put a dvd in and thats fine,checked the DM and went into properties and it states working properly.I was thinking bios update perhaps.everything else is fine.
What I have seen is the high definition audio device is working fine (well by the volume light) but the windows media player is showing no signs and its baffling.I will crack this

Sound
Chipset    Realtek ALC 880
Integrated on motherboard or on PCI Slot    Integrated

So the driver I found a while back should be the correct one.
