I just reformatted my computer and can not seem to get my sound working, please help.

Thankyou

Re-installing XP has a nasty habit of wiping audio drivers.

The best general solution is to re-load your computer's audio drivers.

The best place to find these drivers is the computer manufacturer's web site.

Look for Downloads/Drivers/Audio for your exact computer model.

If your computer was custom built then the motherboard manufacturer is the best source.

If you need help in searching for the download please let us know and supply the exact make and model of the computer or motherboard.

I can't seem to find anything

Do you know the make and model of the computer?

When you run Belarc what is listed under System Model?

Under the system model is Intel Corporation

I still can't seem to hear anything regarding sound

Check the settings under: start > Control Panel > Sound and Audio Devices

Make sure Mute is Unchecked and the Volume slider is up high


On another note: if you added a PCI Sound Card we would need to identify or remove that.
