  This is a homemade laptop.  All I know is what everest told me.  I ran ubuntu and the sound was fine.  I read that many people fixed the no sound problem with some microsoft live update, but when I tried the link it was bad.
  I have the audio driver in a folder but can not seem to download it.  Everything seems to work fine except for the sound.  Please do not send me a link to driver detective or any such programs.  They do not work and they have filled the internet with spam.  It is really frustrating trying to fix a problem when all that comes up is these shameless advertisements for crap programs that say they are free, then want to charge you to fix the problem

Okay, I have downloaded the folder, I opened the folder and inside there are many folders, when I click on setup a window appears  saying windows does not recognize file.  One of the folders says xp, i click on that, same thing.
