Computer Help
I have an IBM Thinkpad T60. I recently had a new hard drive installed and xp professional reinstalled. However, my sound is now not working. I installed the drivers from the IBM site, I have installed the XP fix. I downloaded a program called Belarc Advisor to find all the hardware. Under the multimedia part it shows that there is an someone tell me how to fix this?

Re: Computer Help
The first thing I would do is open it back up and make sure the speaker wire was plugged back in or not accidentaly unplugged...

It looks like you left a word out...are you saying the word was "nothing"?

Under the multimedia part it shows that there is an nothing, someone tell me how to fix this?

I'd love to help you bro but I need more information.

How do you know it is not working? Just no sound? Speakers plugged into the right hole?

Are the right drivers installed? Is it using the right device? Was the driver installed correctly? Do any sounds work? How did you test it?

Re: Computer Help
If it's an AC97 sound card you may need different drivers than those from the OEM. What I would do- just since the AC97 and its clones are so ubiquitous and because this has worked so well in the past-

Go to nvidia's web site and download the Unified Driver for XP. This includes some little gadgets for playing with the sound and such, but most importantly it works and fixes the AC97 issue.

If it turns out that this is not the fix you can back it out easily by running the uninstall.

Sorry for the typo. It shows under multimedia that there is nothing there. Apparently my sound card is not being detected. I have downloaded everything I know to download.
