No sound from my recently bought aspire 3000

Hi i just bout this aspire 3002lci but after i installed windows xp sp2 i tried to play some music but no sound was coming from the speakers so i cheked and realized i needed to download some drivers for the audio so i did, its called realtekc ac97 now the audio settings shows that my default playback device is realttek but still no sound is coming outta it? what can i do? i downloaded realtek hd ac97 but it says it does not pass windows compatibility and im pretty sure the file im downloading says it is for windows xp, can someone help me? is it a possibility that my sound card is screwed? or the pci isnt configured correctly??

Dont pay any attention to the windowes incompatability messages, just load the downloaded drivers,,if you need to,,un-install the old ones,,then go into advanced setting for your sound,,and map your device to the correct player,,ie, sound blaster,,Ac97 etc

    Sometimes it is better to just start all over again and re-install your windows, and then your drivers.
    The one tool i really like to use is: Driver magician, it will look for all the drivers your machine needs and then it will download and install them for you.
    It's not a hundred percent,but it sure saves me time and effort.

I just got an Acer Aspire 3002LCi Laptop and when i turned it on i got a screen that says operating system not found. I would like to get a way to fix this without havng to go to a repair shop.

Hello Bartlett, Hi!, looks like you bought a laptop fresh with no OS installed. You need to buy a licensed windows OS, be it XP or 7, The OS installation is kinda long to describe here, watch youtube for installation of OS.

My audio device is not working. so i want to sound driver for it.

Hello,
You can download all the drivers you need for Lenovo 3000 Y410 Laptop from the below link
http://www-307.ibm.com/pc/support/site.wss/MIGR-68104.html#audio

Just scroll down the page for Audio drivers for both win XP and Vista,click on the blue version number to download the one you want.

Note : Incase you have win XP,some people has issues installing the xp driver with sp3 installed,the driver seems to work with only sp1 and sp2.So if u have SP3 and unable to install xp driver, do one of the following.
1) Uninstall SP3 and install SP2 and then try installing the driver for XP
2) Download Vista driver and install it with windows compatibility mode set to XP SP2.
