Did you download and install C6581,6591,6611,6631,7631_AUDIO_WINXP-PRO.exe audio driver from here: http://support.fujitsupc.com/CS/Portal/sup...?srch =DOWNLOADS

boscru6469 replied 1 month, 2 weeks ago
Yes. I tried every audio driver on that page.

Broni replied 1 month, 2 weeks ago
How old is that thing? What was the original reason for reformat?

boscru6469 replied 1 month, 2 weeks ago
Don't know how old it is. It belongs to a neighbor. He had XP logon password protected and couldn't remember the password

Broni replied 1 month, 2 weeks ago

Don't think it's worth changing motherboards.

Broni replied 1 month, 2 weeks ago
I don't think so, either. Did you try headphones?

boscru6469 replied 1 month, 2 weeks ago
No I didn't. I will have to look around for a set and try that.

I tried a headset with both a sample song in windows ans a CD and got a message about a problem with the sound.

I don't know. It is my neighbor's and he forgot what his XP password was and asked if I could reinstall XP for him.
