Acer Aspire E380 (XP Pro installed)NO SOUND

Please help...Can't get sound

I just bought a used Acer Desktop(Model Aspire E 380). It did not come with an OS installed so I freshly installed XP Pro. I couldn't get on the internet and although I'm a noob, I know it must be a driver. I went out to their website loaded all the XP drivers. Now the internet worked but NO SOUND! I called Acer support but they would not help me because when I installed XP it voided out any warranty or support for this machine(originally manufactured with Vista). Their website for support is www.acerpanam.com I was hoping someone could walk me through step by step how to get this sound card working so I could get my sound to work.


FYI, I went to the device manager and here is where the ONLY yellow question marks are:

-? Other devices
? Audio Device on High Definition Audio Bus

I think this may be the TV Card that came with the machine (I have not yet found the driver for it)

Everything else including sound, Video and Game Controller have + signs

Any help would be appreciated

First off, check which version of Windows you are currently running, then you can download drivers from the following:

PS: Download the executable version

Fixed

Go to their British website - for some reason they don't keep up with panam, Their euro site is up to date.
