Dual Boot sound problem

[M. Anders]

I need some help on a sound issue I have with my
multiboot setup. First I installed Win98SE on my first
hard drive. No problems with that. Then I reformatted my
second hard drive to prepare it for installing WinXP Pro.
After I installed XP on it, everything went fine except
that I do not have any sound when I boot with XP. I have
tried reinstalling the sound cards and drivers under XP
but nothing seems to work. Does anyone have a suggestion
or solution to this problem? Thanks much.

Hi!
have you updated the sound card driver?

1) Silly question, but you did get new XP drivers for the sound card? 2)
What is the make/model of the sound card?
