Is there any issue shown in device manager?

It says device can not start code 10 whatever that means but this is in the control panel bit then sounds and audio devices.

What about Device Manager?

You are trying to make use of a chip on the mother board. Your BIOS will have a section permitting activation or disabling of the AC97 chip.
Make sure that the BIOS is set to make the sound chip active, [AUTO] or [ON] or something similar.

It's most likely a driver issue -
