Hello all.

I have an old Compaq sr1719uk Tower PC that had XP Home Edition on it. Later on the OS died and I had to borrow my friends XP Professional Edition CD and loded it onto the PC.

The problem I have is with that as it's a new OS it doesn't reconise any of the files and now the PC thinks there isn't a sound card. I know there is as it's built into the mother board. But that means it wont have it's name on it.

I've tried HP's site (they own compaq) but their not any help and I've had a look at many reviews of the sr1719uk but none of them talk about sound cards as it's not really to important.

Any help you can give me on this will be much aprishiated.

It should just be an integrated chipset of some kind. Get CPU-Z or another system analysis program and find the chipset, then Google around for the drivers.

Unless you're unlucky, and have the same sound chipset in my girlfriend's new computer, which is made by a company who literally provides no end-user support, including drivers. Classy.

I've tirde one but it doesn't detect it either.
