my pc crashed sat night and my daughter had to re-install windows xp
professional.
When everything was all done I have no sound the devise manager says it's
not installed. I clicked on re-unstall driver and it comes up saying driver
can not be found. My pc was specially built for me and I can't find the guy
who built it he has moved. I don't know what is in my pc. I went to Pc
Pitstop and did tests. But it says nothing about what I have for a sound
card. I don't know if the sound card is any good or not. Can you give me some
suggesstions on what to look for or where to go. I am not advanced in pc
knowledge.

Open the folder and double-click everest.exe to run the application.

As with medical problems, get a second opinion, try "Belarc Adviser"

Also, see if you can fix the "stuck in UPPER CASE" problem on your
keyboard! :-)
