Slow start up & no sound

Postby mel000 » Thu Mar 27, 2008 5:26 am

Problem 1:

It takes foreeeeveeer for my laptop to start up and start working at normal speed in the mornings. It's frustrating. What can I do?


Problem 2:

A few months ago the laptop had some virus and had to be reformatted (if thats the phrase). Since then I don't have any sound. Help!

I assume that XP Professional 2 means service pack 2.

Do you have chipset drivers installed?

For Chipset please install this and reboot:
Chipset

I think there are other devices that do not work or will stop working after you installed the chipset driver.
Please install the following drivers in the given order and everything should work again (reboot, if you are asked to do so):
Video
Audio
Modem
LAN
