    you need to install your sound and video card drivers....

    did you get a driver disk with the system or a motherboard disk? if so the drivers should be on that.

    If not you will have to identify your sound and video cards and maybe download new xp drivers for it if you haven't got them there.

    Is this a compaq/hp/gateway/emachine?? or is it a custom built system?

    If you would like help to identify or download your drivers please post as much information on them as possible...like model and make of computer if its a hp/compaq/gateway or if it is a custom built system you will need motherboard identification if the sound is onboard.

    To Identify motherboard go to
    http://www.belarc.com ........and download their personal advisor. It should tell you what system/computer/motherboard you are dealing with ...

    Can give me/us the exact compaq pesario model ? ... much easier than trying to google reference drivers for each bit ... onboard bits often aren't 'exactly identified' so links from the manufacturers site are 'best'
