I suddenly lost all audio on my PC, and I can't figure out why. It doesn't matter what I open; I can't seem to get the sound back. I tried using two different pairs of headphones and checked both audio ports. The issue started right after my screen went black and flashed the ASUS logo. When the screen came back, the audio was gone. What can I do?

First, try opening the Device Manager to see if your audio device (usually a Realtek card for desktops) is listed without any issues. Look for any error codes like 10 or 43, and check for warning symbols like a yellow triangle or a white down arrow next to it. That could give you clues on what's wrong.
I had a similar problem! Sometimes a simple restart fixes issues like this, so definitely give that a try after checking Device Manager.
