How can I tell what sound card my computer has?

I have a dell laptop and my dad accidentally deleted all the sound drivers. I can't figure out what sound card is inside so I can reinstall them. On a side note, video isn't working in IE but it is in noninternet apps and in FF.

Go to start, right click my computer, click manage and click device manager if you are using Windows XP
Reply:go to the dell web site and type in the model of your laptop in the support section and download all needed drivers.

That is, if you can get anything to run on the Internet. If your graphics won't show the Internet, you could get on a friend's computer, download the program to a disk, and run it on your computer.





You could try re-installing Windows. That might work. Granted, it would probably install generic drivers, but it would do its best to find them. That also should make IE show up again.

for the windows vista version. IF that doesn't do the trick you cna always search dell.com or google.com for your computer's model number then download the drivers from there.
