Open the Sound mixer and make sure nothing is muted or the sliders aren't
down to a minimum.

Put your XP CD into your drive. Don't let it start up.

Start > Run > type msconfig > hit enter > Expand File > follow the
instructions.

The file you're looking for is this one : sndvol32.exe

Expand it into c\windows\system32 overwriting if necessary.

Did that work ?

Cheers,
Jerry
