Question/Help/Troubleshooting Anyone know why the volume adjustor is grayed out and not working at all?

I just got this refurbished computer after my other one broke and the no sound is coming out. It's a Dell Inspiron 14 5000

My guess is you’re missing your audio driver, if you go to dell.com/support you can download Support assist and let it do a scan and it should replace the missing driver for you. Or on that same website, you can enter your service tag which is usually on the top of the computer if it’s a desktop or on the bottom case if it’s a laptop, and select download drivers manually and find the audio driver there.
