Hi,

Since you have removed Vista, now you need to download sound and other drivers from your manufacturer's website.
You can refer the link below to download the drivers you need :--

You can click the driver download button followed by choose XP as operating system.
Hope this helps !

If you have CD of drivers install them in to your laptop. I will work.

Vista not required any driver installation like a Sound, Ethernet, Graphics, Etc. Vista is already having drivers & its has not need to install driver from other source.

But XP cannot work with out drivers.

Re-Install drivers may fix this problem.

Thanks.

Go to the dell website and download the drivers for your model computer, for XP
