1. see your mother board on a chip there is written which company's it is and its model number and another that when you start your computer on the screen there is written in big font.\n2. to install VGA driver right click in the desktop and then select properties and then click setting then click advanced and then click the adapter tab and click the properties button and then follow the instructions.\n3. to find best and correct drivers for your devices go to www.driverheadquarters.com and download the driver detective tool or go to google and then search driver detective.

Download "EVEREST Home Edition 2.20" from http://www.softpedia.com/progDownload/EVEREST-Home-Edition-Download-16369.html. Run the application. Open  multimedia and click on PCI/PnP Audio. Note the description of the device and serach its driver in Google. The second option is to go to "http://downloadfinder.intel.com/scripts-df-external/Product_Filter.aspx?ProductID=1704" site which is the intel site for your motherboard's drivers. Select the operating system and select the audio driver and download it. It is probably " http://downloadfinder.intel.com/scripts-df-external/Detail_Desc.aspx?agr=N&ProductID=1704&DwnldID=8198&strOSs=44&OSFullName=Windows* XP Professional&lang=eng" site.

Check out what the brand is for your sound card. There should have been a CD included with your laptop when you purchased it.\n\nInstall the drivers from that CD, and you should be fine. If there was no CD, call the company or individual you bought the laptop from, in order to get the model of your sound card. With that information, you can go to the manufacturer's website and download the drivers, installing them manually.

First check your speakers by plugging a known portable player to the input of the speakers and see if you have sound.  But be sure that you have the power supply turned on and connected to the speakers.  If you have sound then you can work to the sound card.  By that I mean be sure that your comnection from the speakers is in the proper input on the back of the computer and the connections are tight. (Which is labeled speakers). Or a symble of a speaker indicating the audio output.  If that don't help you may have to go into your bios setup and check that the audio codek is checked properly.  To go into the bios you may have to at boot up wait till you hear the first beep and hit the delete key and wait till the cmoss screen comes up then you can look through the settings and then determine what to do.  But be carefull ,  You may wan't to mark down anything that you change what it was before you changed it and to what you changed it to so that you can return it to its orginal spot if it dosen't work.  Hint most audio drivers are of the AC97 codek, Hope this helps.

You need to go to the dell website and find your model and the drivers for it. If you reformatted, I bet you are missing more than sound drivers! Make sure you download all of the mobo drivers and software! Save it in a folder and burn it to cd!

I have an HP at my job that was having some trouble and it was hard for even the IT people to get info/parts on it. It was a modified ASUS board made for HP apparently. The beeps usually are Video errors or RAM errors. If you switch RAM and still have a problem the motherboard is probably toast. This model sounds pretty old, time to upgrade anyways.

After you cleaned your harddrive, you cleaned your drivers with it. This includes your sound driver. A driver is the software part of your hardware that makes them work the way they do. First you will have to determine what kind of driver you need. A great program that shows you every part of your computers insides is Called PCMark04. You can and should download it from \n\nhttp://www.majorgeeks.com/3DMark06_d4935.html\n\nOnce you download that program, look under your motherboard information. There you will see the model number and company that make your motherboard. Visit thier website and find the driver for that exact motherboard; and download it.\n\nAnother possibility is you have a soundcard in your computer. A sound card is a piece of equipment in your computer that's 100% dedicated to your computers sound. Again, check your PCmark04 and try to find your sound card information. Visit the makers of your videocards' website and download thier latest driver for that particluar sound card. That should help ya out.\n\nIf you're able to determine the information of your soundcard or motherboard without PCmark04 that's fine, it wont make a difference.

Did you check the basics? \n1) after you physically installed it, did Windows detect & install the drivers?\n2) did you plug your speakers into the correct jack, Soundblaster cards are marked with color coded jacks.\nHere are some "general" color codes.\n[black=rear speakers, green=front speakers, pink=microphone, blue=line-in, yellow=digital only]\nThe PCI-128 has only 3 jacks-blue, pink & green.\n3) are your speakers pluged in to an electric outlet\nAfter, you check those things, if no luck. You can email me, if you are not comfortable with the BIOS settings. Which would be where you need to go next, if you have integrated sound on your Motherboard

you first need to know what sound card you have. go to the computer manufacturer's website and go to their downloads section and type in your computer model and number. i.e. presario 5786\nthey should have the specs on your computer, they may even ohave the drivers for your sound card. if they don't write down your sound card's information then go to the sound's card's manufacturer's website to get the drivers. if they don't hav e it, use google to find the drivers you need and download. never underestimate the power fo a good search engine

go to the device manager and see if the  sound card is there if it is remove it and click add new hardware and setit up again if the problems insiste install it again on the board .\ngo to the  safe mode and remoe all the cards (i know it so hard operations but it is good ) \nand go back to windows and search for new hardware in win98 \nand set up the sound card again ( be sure the software in the CD is the sound card's software) \nif the probelems insists and the sound card is found in device manger and no sigen on it (!,?) these mean that u need to replace it .

After checking the plug on the back of your pc and making sure the speakers are connected properly do the following:\n\nRight click "my computer" click properties, go to the hardware tab and click "device manager"\n\nUnder the heading "sound, video, and game controllers" do you see any yellow bangs or errors?  If you don't then your sound device is fine and you should check your sound settings in the control panel.  Something may be muted or turned too low.\n\nIf there are errors then it means the sound driver is corrupted or needs to be replaced.  You need an updated driver.  Go to the website of the manufacturer of your pc or motherboard and look in support for a sound driver.  Sound drivers usually come in an installable package that makes it easy to install.\n\nIf you still have problems you could have a damaged and corrupted file, sound card, or some type of incompatibility issue.  At that point post another question with more details about your machine and we'll see if we can help you some more. :)

It is probably an AC97 audio driver. \n\nClick start Run, and type DXDIAG. This program gives more information about your sound card on the SOUND tab.\n\nAlternatively open the side of your PC and see what is printed on the sound chip (very small writing if it is part of the motherboard)\n\nIf you have sound then don't update the software!! If you don't try the PC manufacturers website and download the motherboard and sound drivers.

try to put the sound card in other pci slots and check.(you should be having atleast 3(white ones not the single dark brown)\n\nit it doesnt work, clean the slots from dust using a vaccumm clearner and plug it in again. \n\nand finally enter bios setup  and disable the onboard sound.

All the other answer are correct go for it!!\n\ncornpie your the one that is CLUELESS if you new anything the bootup IS A PART OF THE BIOS SETTINGS!!! Also F8 boots the computer in the SAFE MODE so that a person can troubleshoot it. It boots with the least amount of drivers so that if it ends up it is a driver problem a person is able to find and reinstall it!!!! Nothing personel mate!!!\n\nAlso it is funny that after the new OS install that Plug N Play didnt pick it up and ask you if you want to install it!!! Usually this would happen if the sound card is incompatible with the new OS!!! Check that also.

You have lost your driver for your sound card. What you need to do is reinstall it. If you know the make and model of your soundcard you can download the driver from the website of the manufacturer, or if you have a name brand computer you can go to that site and get the driver, or you can open your case and see what kind of soundcard you have, if it is built on the mother board that company will have your driver
