Hi
No changes made, nothing downloaded (shareware etc) all of a sudden Dell Dimension ( 3 yrs old with no problems to date) running windows XP says I don't have a sound card. YET..I get the little clicks and bings when I sign onto MSN.
Called support at Dial-a tech and got no help.
Tried a restore to May and was told nothing had changed since then. Rebooted, again nothing.
Any suggestions?
Thanks
C :whistling:

If you go to start, my computer right click properties, hardware tab, device manager, sound, video & game controllers do you see a yellow ! next to the sound? You can try a right click on it and select update driver.
