Turn PC off Remove the sound card Turn the PC on In the device manager make sure no reference of the card remains, if it does then remove them. Turn the PC off Re-insert the sound card and see if windows finds it and re-installs the drivers on the next boot.
Jimi_l BTW What is the make of the sound card? Is it even XP compatable?

Your sound card is a PCI card, usually below the modem, or above. It is the inside card that the speaker wires connect to on the back of your PC.
