HELP! I accidentally un-installed the sound drivers (?)

[jbigman]

So i'm an idiot and just accidentally uninstalled what i believe are the sound drivers (it was called sound max or something to that effect?) off of my computer running windows xp. now, whenever i do anything that has sound, my computer just makes a weird beep noise. under the sound settings in the control panel, it now says there is no audio device or anything else (which there definitely is as i'm on laptop)

please tell me that i didn't just royally screw myself and that there is something that i can do!

thanks

Option 1:
right click on My Computer and go to Manage
select the Device Manager on the left side of the Manage window
find the sound device on the right side of the Manage window and double-click on it
go to the driver tab of the sound properties window and click roll back driver

If that doesn't work try this
Option 2:
Go to Start -> All Programs -> Accessories -> System Tools -> System Restore
Restore to the time when you think you uninstalled the drivers.
