I refomatted my computer and know there is no sound.

It says something about installing my sound card but I don't know how to...

Can anyone help??

Look for any driver CDs for your sound card that came with your computer when you purchased it. If you know what sound card you have, you can download the drivers from the manufacturers website.

if u cant find your sound card driver go to www.drivers.com you'll need to know what type of speakers you have which u can find from the base of ur speakers or you'll know from memory. Goodluck

How does knowing what speakers you have help with finding sound card drivers?

well its useless downloadind random drivers and I doubt this person knows they have a sound card let alone wat type it is... What I'd do is shove the mother board disc in and hopefully it detects :\

I know i do have a sound card because i could play sound before.

Also, i have a latop so i can't look at the base of my speakers...

The more important question is actually what sound card you have.

What laptop do you have? You can most probably go to the manufacturer's website and download it from there.

Is this it?
Realtek Advance AC '97 audio accelerator driver.

Version A3.44

that looks like onboard sound to me , meaning your motherboard disc should install the drivers...

We don't know what laptop you have, so we have no way of knowing what drivers are right for you. If those are the ones that you found matching your laptop's model then they should be it.

Its a laptop.
