I wiped a friend's laptop and put XP back on it {which is what was on it before} and now it's saying there is no sound device. The Laptop is a Compaq and has, of course, internal speakers. Also, I tried going to Add New Programs, and did the hardware things but it apparently didn't work for some reason... :confused:

Click on Auto Detect and then look for the sound drivers. Download, install reboot.
