Post Sp2 install problems

[Guest]

Since I have done a complete reinstall of Win XP Pro and subsequently Sp2 I
have lost my sound driver, viewing of my network connections and the viewing
of my device manager items. Any suggestions would be sincerely appreciated.

When you do a clean install of an operating system, you need to install
drivers for all the hardware in your computer.

Never get drivers from Windows Update. Get them from:

1. The device mftr.'s website; OR
2. The motherboard mftr.'s website if hardware is onboard; OR
3. The OEM's website for your specific machine if you have an OEM
computer (HP, Dell, Sony, etc.).

Read the installation instructions on the website where you get the
drivers.

To find out what hardware is in your computer:

1. Read any documentation you got when you bought the computer.
2. If the computer is OEM, go to the OEM's website for your specific
model machine and look at the specs (you'll be there to get the drivers
anyway)
3. Download, install and run a free system inventory program like Belarc
Advisor. The older Aida32 is good for this, too.
