Replies Darkane Posted at 12:55 pm on Jan. 6, 2009 Ok, sorry now I'm causing you a bit of work haha but this is what I'd do to sort things out. Might be easier ways but this is one way Go here: http://www.cpuid.com/cpuz.php and download it using the link in the top left corner Extract everything to a folder somewhere or onto your desktop, doesn't matter, then run cpuz Under the mainboard tab just list out what the make and model is. From there it'll be possible to find what driver you need for whatever onboard audio is on the mainboard. abbeyqtpi Posted at 12:51 pm on Jan. 6, 2009 Quote: from Darkane at 3:48 pm on Jan. 6, 2009 Ah ok, well if you have windows xp click Start > Run then type dxdiag and hit enter A new window should come up and under the sound tab it'll say what sound device you have. Everythings blank. Except where it says "No sound card was found.  If one is expected, you should install a sound driver provided by the hardware manufacturer."

Try find some documentation or cd's that came with your computer and find out what sound card/onboard audio you have first. When we bought it from Rent-A-Center, it didn't come with any CDs like that. :S Darkane Posted at 12:45 pm on Jan. 6, 2009 All you probably need is a driver.
