Hi,

I too have the same problem as everyone else, installed windows xp home with SP2 and cant get any sound. Tried all the usual things, uninstalling and reinstalling the audio devices, when I go into sound it doesnt even recognise that there is any sound anywhere. I have details from my computer from the belarc advisor, shown below and would be grateful for any suggestions for what I can try.
Thanks in advance
