Hi
Like many others i have no sound after reinstalling windows xp.
Last week,very foolishly i did a very dumb thing and installed Freespire Linux (out of sheer curiosity !) not realising that this would wipe out everything including windows !
I didn't like the Linux system so had to buy the full windows xp installation.....thats one very big costly mistake i will never make again.
Anyway to get to the point everything works perfect apart from the fact that i have no sound at all. I've just run the Belarc Advisor ....any help or advise would be very much appreciated.
