Can't install sound drivers

[Benhurdk]

Hi i really hope some one can help me.

I have freshly installed laptop with windows XP, but I can't seem to get the drivers for the soundcard installed properly. I have tried the disc that came with the computer and I have tried to download drivers from the realtek website and compals website.

The system is a Zartego IFT00
The motherboard is an Intel Crestline-pm pm965
The soundcard is a Realtek ALC268

I have checked the BIOS to see if I could deactivate the onboard sound, but there next to no possibilities for adjusting anything in the Phoenix bios.

Can anyone explain how come i can't install the driver or even better come up with a solution?

Thanks

From what I have read it's High Definition audio, did you get this driver from Realtek http://www.realtek.com.tw/downloads/...Audio%20Codecs

Download the (Executable file) save to desktop, double click downloaded file on desktop to install

The site is slow

Set a System Restore Point before installing drivers just in case
Start / All Programs / Accessories / System Tools / System Restore / select Create a restore point and follow instructions
