I just had to reinstall my OP and I have been able to download all the drivers i need, but the only problem I have is i am missing my sound card and drivers and have no Audio.

I have Service Pack 3.

I have no sound card. when it finds an audio driver, it tells me to put my Service Pack 3 cd and that Ksuser.dll is needed.

Please help!Have you tried going to your Computer Manufacturers Website, going to Drivers and Downloads, locating your Computer Model and downloading Audi/Multimedia Drivers?yep..I don't know what exactly to do. Nothing I download that is supposed to fix it seems to be working at all.Ok, go to Device Manager and see if you can find any Yellow Question or Exclamation marks.Oh I have been doing that.

I have fixed all of them except Audio Device on High Definition Audio Bus & Ethernet Controller.Did you install the chipset drivers first?-->LookHere

Yep, I already did that as well.

Install the audio drivers here,see below link.Download "Windows 2000, Windows XP/2003(32/64 bits) Driver only (ZIP file)"
When you get to the site you must check I accept the above wait,then choose
next.

http://www.realtek.com.tw/downloads/downloadsView.aspx?Langid=1&PNid=24&PFid=24&Level=4&Conn=3&DownTypeID=3&GetDown=falseokay great, I downloaded the Realtek driver and then downloaded the Sygmatel driver from Dell Support.
I have audio now and it goes up and down...
but on screen the volume is just green lines.

and i tested the sound with the directx diagnostic tool and the test was successful but said "your sound card does not support hardware buffering. sounds will only play back form software buffers."

Is there a way to fix/change/get rid of these things?
You are probably using the wrong drivers...Dell's like only Dell drivers.
Visit Dell's site and enter your Service Tag # from the back of the MACHINE and it will list ALL your drivers...Quote from: infekktion on October 06, 2008, 05:49:18 AM
