No Sound after reformat
I reformatted afreinds computer on the weekend, after the reformat was complete we had no sound. From what investigation I could find out on the net, and here, (which seems like a super great forum by the way), I find this is common after a reformat. The problem with his system is we think it is an onboard sound card. As I can find no "hardware" recognized by his system.
here are his specs.
OS Name Microsoft Windows XP Home Edition
Version 5.1.2600 Service Pack 2 Build 2600
OS Manufacturer Microsoft Corporation
System Name HOME
System Manufacturer VIA Technologies, Inc.
System Model P4M266A-8235
System Type X86-based PC
Processor x86 Family 15 Model 2 Stepping 9 GenuineIntel ~1996 Mhz
BIOS Version/Date Phoenix Technologies, LTD 6.00 PG, 25/03/2004
SMBIOS Version 2.2
Would appreciate any assistance anyone can give in trying to figure out what drivers I need to find and install !!
Thanks

They downloaded this and said they could find nothing listed after Multmedia, I assume that is where we look for the sound card??
