    The sound on my m9750 doesn't work. I reinstalled the version of windows xp pro that came with it (it's completely bare, no drivers, no programs, nothing). My sound doesn't work. I tried installing the Realtek drivers, but it's like they didn't even install. In the device manager it shows that i have Audio Codecs, and Legacy Audio Drivers. I can't even open the volume control panel because it isn't there. Whenever a sound should be heard (like the Windows default ding) I just get this angry beep sound. I've also tried installing/re-installing video drivers (as that is what Alienware Support told me to do last time.) Any ideas? :( :( :( :(
