Problem with sound after windows XP installation and realtek

Hello again, I've downloaded the driver as specified and I've restarted the computer but I still have no sound. I checked the Device manager and I don't see realtek anywhere. All I see Under "sound video and game controllers" is Audio Codecs, Gameport for thrustmaster ACM (first port), Legacy Audio Drivers, Legacy Video Capture Devices, Media Control Devices, Microsoft Kernel System Audio Device, Microsoft WINMM WDM Audio compatibility driver, MPU-401 Compatible Midi Device, and Video Codecs. Please help, thanks alot! Comments: Jun 08, 2009- Well I talked to someone earlier and they recommended this device, i entered my serial number in the search and thats the sound card driver that came up. I checked it and none is on mute, it simply says. No Audio Device and No Playback devices Solution #1 posted on Jun 08, 2009

check the series, is it really require realtek? because the driver doesn't depends on the windows XP, but the type, model and series of motherboard or chipset brand.... anyway, realtek doesnt written on the device manager, check to your control panel - sound and audio device, is all enabled?or does any volume elements are muted..


MAY I have another solution please?
