Ace of Spades,

In Device Manager, is this the name (DLS device) of the Audio Device shown
when you unfold Sound, video and game controllers? If it is, then, under its
Properties, does the status indicate that This device is working properly?

If the answer to all the above is yes, then that's your sound device. In
that case, there must be some setting somewhere that you need to find to
enable sound. Anyone else?

Is the DLS device in my sound drivers actually a driver?? because basically
my computer has no sound whatsoever, I've tried all the volume switches,
tried all the ports and the DLS device is working (apparently). So do i need
a separate sound card? or should I be able to hear sound through my comp
anyway? If i don't need a Sound card, then what is wrong with my comp?
