What else have you got that USB?? Try deleting that USB device and reboot see if it comes back

Speedy - when you suggest 'that USB' - I've got heaps of USB connections. :crying

I wonder which particular one you think I should delete and reboot - all, just a particular one???

As an aside - during the 'first' installation of XP I had forgotten my wireless mouse and had taken out all USB connections! Caused me a few moments of angst remembering keystrokes! It is said 'We learn by our mistakes'!

653438 2008-03-28 01:40:00 Yay - I've got sound! And my important HDD with pics etc. Happiness reigns.:clap :clap

I searched for and downloaded Realtek ac97 driver - and that cured the problem. I am also halfway through wireless networking - always makes a bit cranky!:(

So - we're (and I mean you too!) are getting there!

653439 2008-03-28 01:43:00 Umm the link was in your other post for the audio/sound drivers

653440 2008-03-28 02:26:00 I know, I know - but I researched the problem on the net and found that others had had similar problems - with the cure suggested. No logic... But hey - it worked! :)

PS - I'm ever so grateful for all your patience - the other half ('Himself') is not near so patient - especially when I have him crawling under the desk finding/sorting cables!
