Yes you could fix it yourself by checking, and if needed re-installing the audio drivers into the XP operating system. Check the device manager and verify that the audio drivers are installed.

I have a VAIO MW XP, VERSION: 2002 SP 3 , that completely lost all sound,, in control panel , audio section , under volume , it says no audio devise ! I have no volume control at all , for sounds ( s

Can you use your SYSTEM RESTORE function? You can find it:
Start> all programs> accessories> system tools>system restore.

If this doesn't fix it, I always fall back on Realtek Audio sound drivers. I've never found anything that Realtek wouldn't get the sound working on yet. You can google it and download it for free.

Short of that, it sounds like you will need to restore your sound drivers to make your sound work.

My windows xp had 4 yrs we ran a system recovery and now my screen is blue but still can get interenet some words are blurrer it says erroe 1316

the error 1316 message usually means a previous installation of a software is getting in the way of the new installation. It's kinda nutty that this would cause a problem, but we live in a nutty world. The fix is to download a free program from Microsoft that will totally and completely remove the old software. Then the new version can load unimpeded.
try to open ur local disk properties-->on general tab use disk clean up.. if that not work properly
need to try Download: Microsoft Windows Installer Cleanup Utility from and run it to .u can download these here:

Unmountable boot volume hp pavilion ze4400

Recommend entering Windows XP CD, and entering R once the CD Boots up, and enters installation mode.

This will bring you into the Admin panel, enter password, and than enter chkdsk c: -f Once this is completed eject CD, and than restart XP.

Attempt to turn on computer, no OS install windows

Marginal hard drive, hard drive cable, or hard drive controller (on motherboard).

Other suspect parts may be the CD ROM drive you're trying to run the OS install from. It may also be flaky, causing you to think you're loading the OS, but not really and not reporting errors until you discover the OS is not completely installed.

First thing to do is pull the HDD and cable out, reseat firmly and try again. May as well do the same for the CD/DVD drive.
