No sound

[the dust collector]

ya my sisters friend put windows xp on here (little late i know lol) and now we can't get any sound outta the dam thing. its not the speakers cuz i can hook em up to my diskman all the time, but i kinda want some sound from the computer...ne suggestions? (i a noob at computers btw lol)

I've been looking at some otehr posts where ppl have been having troubles with speakers, and i went to control panel and i went to the sound thingy and it jsut said no drivers installed..where do i get the drivers?

That doesn't mean that he has a sound card, he might have onboard sound.

it could be a sound card or onboard sound, either way hes got sound

Hmm, this is a tough one because unless you figure out what brand or model the onboard/add in souncard is, you won't be able to figure out wat drivers to install...
