Question：I had to install Windows 2000 after losing XP disk and eventually the OS due to a virus. I now do not have any external speaker options or sounds. I can hear the internal speaker "beep" but that is the ONLY sound coming from this dinosaur computer of mine. I have installed TEAC Adaptec Easy CD Creator 4.02e and it runs as if everything is fine but still no sound. I get messages depending on what I try to do that tell me there is no sound card. I haven't removed anything, most likely have an onboard anyway but still no sound. How do I get this system to locate and recognize there is a sound card somewhere? The computer is a Dell Optiplex GX260. Thanks, K
Answer 1：Hello HDBabyVegas, welcome.
The problem you are experiencing is related to there not being a sound card driver installed.
Here is a direct link to Dell's website that will allow you to download the driver for you sound card.

Once the page loads, expand the 'Audio' section and choose to download the 'Analog Devices - Driver'.
After installing it, restart your computer and let us know if it fixes your issue,
Thanks!
