Windows 7 doesn't recognize built in speaker on Gateway Laptop

[tombcpa]

I'm upgraded my Gateway Laptop MX6920 to Windows 7 32bit. Everything seems to be working fine except Windows 7 hasn't recognized the built in speakers. The sound is fine with headphones or external speakers. Any suggestions?

thats a pretty old laptop and i think there lies your problem. if windows 7 cant find a driver for your older hardware you might just be sol.go into device manager and see if you have an exclamation mark beside your sound devices. its a driver issue in that windows cant find one.
