    Your System Specs are not showing - you missed out the final step .....

    Download the Audio driver from the first URL I posted - save it to your hard drive and double click on it to run.

    No - Asia/America are closest to you.

    Hi missa85, I have just a few days ago helped a friend with a similar problem no sound in XP.
    First station was look in Device Manager > Sound if there are any yellow exclamation or Question marks there, if yes delete them and reboot.
    I have found that XP audio drivers direct from Realtek are working just fine I downloaded them from here:

    http://download.cnet.com/Realtek-AC...r-VER-5-10-0-5554-zip/3000-2110_4-210198.html

    installed them and they are working just fine.

    Thanks Pete,
    Notice yours was from the TW site, I just used the gigabyte link that comes up here in Australia, missa'a board & mine are similar apart from CPU type 478/775.

    Missa,
    Open the folder & double click on the setup Icon and follow the prompts, let us know when you get time

    Delighted to hear that the problem is resolved :) Looks like your first download was incomplete or corrupted.

    I've marked this thread as 'Resolved', please see .....
