I reinstal XP and know all drivers are missing. I don't have sound.

you will need to set up your sound card and drivers again if your computer came with a motherboard disk the sound drivers could be on it
click start control panel sounds and audio,volume,advanced,speakers select appropriate speakers or audio you will find 3 drop down lists make the necessary adjustments there or
click start control panel,administrive tools,computer management,device manager,sound video and game controllers could be a yellow question mark? right click to re-install drivers
if you dont have a motherboard disk you will need to download the sound drivers
hope this helps

To download a compatible driver you need to know the model and make of your PC or motherboard. Since you have none, all I can say is download Driver Detective and install it.

Run it and let it scan your system. It will search for a compatible driver but won't download it unless you pay. Note the name of the sound device and search for a compatible driver. Or give me the name and I'll search it for you.

Following your clean install of Windows XP you will need to reinstall the sound driver for your PC. This driver is listed under the original driver's header in the following link.

If you are missing any other drivers you should also download them from this link. You can tell which drivers you are missing by right clicking on my computer - click on properties - then select device manager. Any system devices listed with a yellow exclamation mark (!) Are missing a fully functioning device driver.

Did you lookup your PC on the zenith pc website?: http://www.zenithpc.com/
Here you should find the correct drivers for your pc.

(Changing your CPU, doesn't change the drivers you need)

Best bet is to run Windows Update. Windows update will see that there are missing drivers and provide them for you to download.

reinstall xp professional and upgrade media player.

Possibilities are that sound driver might have been corrupted during restore.
So try reinstalling the driver from the mother board's driver cd.
It should do the job for you.

Rarely the worse happens when the mother board's sound card is corrupted, even so you can add an adiitional sound card to mother board and can get back the sound..

But mostly it is the first situation you are facing,.. so reinstalling the sound card driver should do the job for you. It is only the software oriented problem

I can only assume that you have a Sound Blaster product since you have not stated which one. Here is a link to the drivers.
