    I just installed Windows XP on my computer and have no sound but the drivers are installed for it. Windows can't detect a unknown device on my computer. I tried using a unknown device identifier, but cant seem to find what the device is because the id's are not the same.

    Here are the only ID's device manager gives me,
    Device Istance id: ACPI\WEC0515\4&398EACD8&0
    Hardware id's: ACPI\WEC0515, *WEC0515

    Funny had the same problem last weekend. It asks for C-MEDIA 97 drivers.
    But you want the SIS 7012 drivers. PM me if you get stuck.

    When I did install Windows XP I didn't use my Sony back-up discs, I used the original Windows XP CD. Is there a way to serch on the Sony back-up discs for the missing drivers?

    I dont know, but I'd say 99% of the drivers one needs are on the net,
    it is a matter of searching and finding.

    Try Driverguide ,
    login = drivers
    pword = all

    It has a tons of drivers, and good links for manufacturer.
    Its a bit better for older and rare hardware I think.
    But thats where I go if I dont find drivers with Google
    right away, he he.

    Spoiler: Show

    My old HP came with two recovery discs. One had an image of the hard drive on it that you can restore, the other disc had drivers. You could try looking if you want.

    In device manager click on update drivers, with your sony disk in the cd drive. Then point to d:/ ,it should find them .

    Wow it must have been a long time since I went to that site, did not know the username and password had changed, but thanks for the info because I do go there when I can not find a driver.
