Do you have the original XP install disc?

If so, just put it in the cd-rom, then when you try to upload the driver, it will search the XP disc and load it.

Without the disc, you may have to go to the manufacturers web site and get the driver there.

right click on the device with the yeelow mark and choose uninstall and say OK
close all open windows and restart the pc. On reastart, windows will find sound card and load a generic sound driver. After windows starts, check sound.

If still ot working, check device mgra dn make note of the sound card/driver, post here and/or go to mfg website
