No Audio Output device Installed

Recently, i installed a few updates on my Laptop including windows explorer 8 but they were not properly installed probably the computer was not properly rebooted after the updates, so it started showing the error message "No Audio output device is installed" and also did not shut down properly. My colleague suggested the following steps and it worked.
1. Go to cmd in startup and right click "run as administrator".
2. Now type "chkdsk c: /f". It showed the message unable to lock disk, can do on restart .
3. After rebooting it did a chkdsk for about 15-20 minutes and everything is working properly after that.

I am putting forward the steps to install F10 on AMD Athlon -X2 Presario CQ60 laptop and my experiences while installing it, so that anyone who reads it can benefit maybe in a small way. 1. Download Fedora iso for architechture suitable to your PC (see fedora installation notes) and create a DVD. Verify the dvd as given in http://fedoraproject.org/en/verify . You have to download a tool for checksum generation (sha1) for the dvd and compare it with the checksum listed on the fedora website for verification. http://docs.fedoraproject.org/readme-burning-isos/en_US/sn-validating-files.html 2.
