No Audio Device Error

MSUCoastGirl85 · 01-07-2009, 07:08 AM

Hi guys,

I recently had to reinstall a fresh version of Windows XP Pro on a Dell Dimension 5150. I downloaded all of the drivers to a jump drive and mostly everything installed fine with the exception of the audio. When I go to Sounds and Audio Devices Properties through the Control Panel, it reads No Audio Device. I went to the Dell website and downloaded the SigmaTel drivers. However, I keep receiving this error message after installing the drivers: This system doesn't support the driver you are trying to install. However, at startup, the Hardware Wizard does detect new hardware, a new PCI Device. So, someone please tell me, what to do now?
