My computer recently died (not sure what happened) and my dad reinstalled Windows 98 on it.  However, the computer has no SOUND.  We're basically clueless - not sure how to tell if the problem is with the drivers or the sound card or what.  I'd like to figure out what kind of drivers I NEED and whether or not I have them.  I'm not sure where to start - help, please?We've got you covered. Please post computer or motherboard make/model as well as sound card info. If UNSURE, download and run Everest (it's free) and see many important details about your machine. Then we will find the drivers. You WILL have sound again.

The computer is a Dell Dimension desktop XPS T450.  The motherboard says Intel Seattle II SE440BX-2, and the sound card says Aureal Montego II Sound Card.It was real easy to find on the Dell web site:

If so, open Control Panel>System>Device Manager and remove the card. It will be there with a yellow "!" by the side of it. Now run that setup file.

If there is no setup file, but a .inf file, right click on the card in Device Mnager and select "Update Driver". Point it to the folder where the files are stored.That works!  Thanks very much.
