Try this site, they seem to have some answers http://www.sevenforums.com/sound-audio/65392-audio-driver-sound-blaster-ct4780-windows-7-a.html

Reload your sound card driver if you have one. XP has resident support for most sound cards, but not for all. . Short of that, you need to go to device manager and see if your sound card is showing up as "working correctly". If not, microsoft has articles that address sound problems. You should be able to get an answer there.

I'm thinking that you might have to install the chipset drivers, also.
Because the sound is part of the motherboard, they will be needed.

you need to uninstall the driver, restart the computer and reinstall the driver

I just posted this same problem myself last night. I found another tip and tried it and it solve my problem.
1. Go to MY Computer properties by rt clicking on the icon
2. Go to Hardware tab and look for your Sound(click the + sign)
3. Right click only the sound device that is a problem and click "remove or unistall". Leave all the codecs or other things you see in there.
4. Close everything and Reboot
5. Windows XP will recognize "found new hardware" and installs the drivers automatically if it is still in the system, if not you have to reinstall from your recovery disks.
6. Reboot again (that's how I got my sound back)

hi your computer is not seing the driver of your sound card, you may need to download updated driver for it, you can search for the drivers of your sound card online, you can also find that on the computer manufacturers website.

to see the status of your devices go to device manager for more info.

right click on my computer icon>properties>hardware tab>device manager.

you can also uninstall, reinstall, and update device drivers here.

hope this helps.

you need to install a compatible multimdia controller/driver for your system.Uninstall the previous driver and Check out this site below for some audio drivers.Make sure it is XP compliant.
