I am using Dell Inspiron 6000, win XP.
Recently I have installed some codecs.

-1st problem the Microphone couldnt be used; the voice couldnt be
recorded.

-I have deinstall codecs; reinstalled the card;
the card appeared once;

but now the system doesn't recognized the sound card Sigma Tel C-Major
Audio;


I do not have the original installation CD for XP; the Dell didnt
provide me with that.


Do you have any idea how to fix that problem:
-to install sound card properly
-the microphone is avalable; this is more challanged task

thanks.

Try to update the driver from device manager (let windows search itself the
driver, and if you have SP2 – choose the Windows update site search).
If windows cannot recognize your driver alone, try to re-install manually
the driver right from here:

Good luck!

even that that I installed the card, and tehre is sound in Music
Player:
this is written in MSN "Your computer does not have a sound card, or a
sound card is not selected."

Also I cannot use the Microphone. I'd appreciate your ideas, and help.
thanks.

Go to the control panel and select sound and audio devices. on the audio tab make sure that that
your sound card is selected in the default device. In the middle you will see a volume button in
the sound recording section press this, make sure microphone is selected.
