Boris Posted November 10, 2008 Report Share Posted November 10, 2008 So you haven't got an audio device showing ?See my screenshot for what it should look like. :) I have a Realtek AC'97 audio chip - which shows as such.Have you installed all the motherboard drivers ?What exact model is your Dell laptop ?
