Newbie Here, Need help with my Sound, Too!

OK, I bought a custom computer on Ebay. I've just installed the OS (Home XP) and noticed that I dont have any sound. Man, I really want some sound, too!
Well, here's some info I acn give you to help me.
I've gone into Device Manger and attempted to update and install the drivers: Multimedia Audio Controller, SM Bus Controller, Video Controller. However, I've gotten nowhere.
I think maybe I need to download a driver for these.

I dont have a CD-Rom, I never got one. I tried driverguides.com and couldnt find it.

Anyway, I'm not a computer expert, and I need some serious help.

Below is some system info:

You'll need to know the make and model of the sound card and the video card in order to download the correct XP compatible drivers.

I can't tell either one from the information provided so download Unknown Device Identifier and then run it.

Hopefully it will be able to provide more detail on what you have so the correct drivers can be found.
