No Sound Most Of The Time
My N4010 Inspiron has a red X or the icon and yet when I click on the icon and run the detecting test it says there is nothing wrong with the sound. Once in a while the sound will work but mostly not at all.

After uninstalling the Realtek driver if you reboot the system Windows should ideally reinstall the generic audio driver.If you check in Device Manager under Sound,video and game controller,do you see anything listed with a yellow exclamation mark or triangle ? or in Device Manager do you see Other Devices with Audio Controller listed?
If you see either of the above,try reinstalling the Realtek driver using the link below :
If the sound would not come run the dell diagnostic audio test which tells you is there any hardware failure or not.

Open the Playing Audio troubleshooter: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows7/Open-the-Playing-Audio-troubleshooter
Method 2: If the issue persists then try to update drivers for your Sound Card from manufacturer’s website.
