It's possible that the drivers of the sound card are missing or corrupted. Go to Device Manager and check if there is anything with a warning sign.0

Press the Windows key and start typing Device Manager ... click on the Device Manager result. Any device not properly configured will be obvious in the list.
W10 usually has drivers for most hardware but in some cases you may need to get the driver package from the manufacturer's website.0 -

Is this a laptop or a desktop? You obviously need speakers, but only you can answer the questions whether the speakers are integrated or not. Where did the sound come from before the disk was replaced? Any chance you have external speakers that have been connected to the mic port instead?0

its a desktop.. The only thing that was changed was the Hard Drive. The pc used to play sound without added speakers before the HD was changedThe best portion of your life will be the small, nameless moments you spend smiling with someone who matters to you.0
