HELLO there guys i need some help here with my sound i have on borad sound and some how its turned it self off when i pulled out the modom and put it in mine i have formated and every thing i can try i have done it i dont know how to find the on borad sound thing lol all i know is that my mom got it from patriot computers about 4 years ago lol and as far as the sound gose i dont know what it is lol my mom tolled me it was a yamaha ds-xt we have a disk for it but it still dont work when we install it plz some one help me out that would be gr8te

well that was a little confusing... If the sound card is built into the motherboard then the drivers are on the motherboard disk. (a disk comes with each motherboard containing the built-in componets). If this is a seperate sound card, read the writing on the card as it should have the makers name on it somewhere,, ie.. ESS, Sound Blaster,,,etc.. You will then have to goto the makers website for the drivers.... good luck.
