Alright, I was trying to update my sound driver and after it is done, I restart my computer, go on vent and get this:
Unable to activate DirectSound for selected device.
DirectSoundCaptureCreate failed. HR=DSERR_NODRIVER. No sound driver is available for use.

How am I able to fix this? I also have no sound on my computer now.
