Help me with a driver please

After you installed XP did you install ALL the motherboard drivers on the CD
that came with it? Should have been chipset, audio and/or video (if on
motherboard), etc.

Hi Jerry and Joust in Jest,
Thank you for your prompt reply which helped me solve my problems about the
driver
and the modem.
..
You were right for the drivers. Audio drivers were missing. Installing them
from motherbord's
CD solved the problem. Much appreciated.

Chris
