Changed a PSU and now have no sound on the machine

Any thoughts? I didn't really know what I was doing but just fumbled my way along. PC is working fine but now has no sound, have I missed something? I've never done anything beyond changing GPU's and CD drives so don't really know my way around the inside of a PC properly!

Yes everything outside of the case is as it was (checked and double checked). Just wondering if there is a cable inside the case that has any effect on audio basically? I may have unplugged something i shouldn't have or forgotten to plug something in. I guess I shouldn't be dicking around when I don't know what's what but it's an old machine and if you don't do you don't learn right!

Don't worry, you probably just bumped onto the audio connector. Just disconnect it and connect it again

Look on your motherboard for "F_Audio", "FP Audio" or something similar to that (Your case's audio/hd audio connector should be connected there)

Ah man I completely messed up the topic. I meant PSU not CPU.. What a difference a letter makes! Sorry people.

This is likely the cause if you changed the PSU and removed all the wires. You likely just forgot to re-plug that part back into the motherboard.

You connect it in here (It may also be called FP Audio, F Audio, FPanel Audio or FP_Audio or other names similar to those)

Thanks, that's a big help! I'll check that as soon as I get in tonight and report back. :)

otherwise make sure you didnt actually dislodge your sound card, if you have one
