Title: Oh dear, another audio driver deletion
Post by: Eddisbury on July 24, 2009, 02:45:14 PM: Hi

I have accidentally purged my supposedly unused program files but have also lost my audio driver. I'm running XP; within sounds and audio everything is greyed out. I've no idea what sound card I have; I've tried running DirectX diagnostics, but it said no sound card was found. Any ideas, please?
