I then had no sound
It would not let me restore
Was instructed to go to safe mode & reinstall Avast
Now all virus chest info is gone

Hi,
You may repair your system by performing system restore.(control panel->Backup and Restore)
And then you’d better scan system with Microsoft Security Essentials and remove malware in time.

Hello
System volume information_restore was put in virus chest and was lost with sound.
System volume information_ restore was found with a search but was blue colored & not accessable.
I tried running system restore and it was not able to restore to numerous earlier dates.
Can I fix this ? Thank You
Mike H.

To reinstall audio card driver and check it again. If the issue persists, you could perform In-Place upgrade to repair your system.

Hi,
To download and install the driver from the manufacture website, or contact computer manufacuter for assistance. I suggest you to updage motherboard driver. You may check the brand and model of your audio card in Device Manager.
