Title: Optiplex GX50 Win XP Sound Driver
Post by: Dead_reckon on June 11, 2008, 04:30:30 PM

I can't seem too find a Win XP sound driver for a dell optiplex GX50. The below site, dell's site, has only windows 2000 drivers, yet, this dell has a Windows XP Professional sticker on it. I have no discs for this Dell. I have tried too find a windows XP driver, no luck, and the windows 2000 driver doesn't work at all. I need this driver because the one windows installed seems too not work, I need too know if the onboard audio works or not, as this machine is going too be my TVR box. Specs are below in the dell link, so if anyone can find drivers, thanks, if not, I'll have too dig up some ancient sound card.

It was donated too my brothers collage, then donated too my brother, as the collage has no need for such off form factor ancient machines. My brother gave me the dell for doing some work too his desktop.
