Hi everyone, i hopeyou can help. I am not a computer wiz at all so i am sorry in advance for any confustion or if this sounds stupid however if you could help that would be great.

I have upgraded to vista ultimate from xp home, everything is fine but i have no sound, i have tried to update my drivers for my sound device but the device manager says that it is already updated. There is a yellow ! mark next to the device listed and in the bottem right hand corner there is a speaker with a red X next to it. i am unsure of what sound card i have in my system but i have the specs below.

If anyone could help with this i would be most thankful.

Regards, Nick
