Moving from Hm XP to Full XP Pro

[Guest]

I had a home xp ed. then I installed the full version of xp prof. since there
is no sound in my computer. When I turn on my computer or restart, I have a
choice to click home edition or professional. If I cliked the home edition, I
get a sound but if I used or clicked the professional edition, I don't have
sound in my computer, the message says "I have to install a sound card." Your
reply is greatly appreciated.

I did that already, it shows that "sounds card is not available" you mean I
need to have two sound card installed in my computer, one for the xp
professional and one for the xp home edition? If i switch to home xp edition
I don't have a problem with the sound, if I switched to professional xp then
I have sound problem.

Second question: When I first bought my computer I have a home edition xp
and a month ago I installed a full version of professional xp (not upgrade).
When I turn on my computer I have choice to use home edition or professional
xp. In my other computer I had window me and then I installed full version of
professional xp but when I turn it on, there is no choices to use either
window me or professional xp and don't have any problem including sound
device. Did I make the installation right on the other computer that has a
sound problem?

Thank you again for your repy, greatly appreciated.

Go to the manufacturer website for your sound card and download then install
the latest drivers
