Tried absolutely everything ,Please help thanks!

Go to control panel - sound .
you will see HDMI Audio there, set it as default..

^^ Yeah, I find it easier to right click the volume on the taskbar and click "playback devices" shortcuts straight to the selection screen you need.

Have you re-installed the graphics driver properly after your OS reinstall? There is usually a special driver for the protected sound path on HDMI cards. It should be included with the graphics driver, but installs as a seperate driver...
