Integrated Sound Card from Realtek Not Working please help

[maximusss_69]

Hey Fellow Technicians,

I'm having a weird problem.
I have a HP Pavillon A730n
It's a P4 3.0 Ghz
512 DDR
blablalbla ...

IT has an integrated Sound Card which I use ...

My problem:

I previously Installed Windows XP PRO SP2 over my Windows XP Home Edition that originally came with my PC... I do not have my Recovery CD's since my house burnt down and all my computer stuff is at a warehouse all I have is my PC...

Basicly when I boot ... I see 2 choices ....
1) Windows XP Pro
2) Windows XP Home Edition

Can't Format have important files I need to keep there for the moment ...

When I log in XP Home Ed I get sound ( That was my first partition )
When I log in XP Pro I have no more Sound ( Partition Created Afterwards )

All my drivers all ok except my sound card ...

Me Personally I tried all the drivers ... all the forums ... and I still can't figure it out ...

I personnaly think there could be a conflict between both operationg systems and that I have to do something to activate my ISC ( Integrated Sound Card ) To work.

Get it off XP Home Ed and put it on XP Pro

I'm about 90% sure this is a problem within the windows registery ...

Please If anyone of you ever had a similar problem let me know ...
John

Hello! Welcome to TechSpot!

My thought on this would be to get another HDD.
Set it as Primary, do a clean install of xp pro.
You should be able to sort out the sound drivers.
We have the latest here @ TS, (top of this page, dead center)
Once you have stable install, slave your original Hdd to gain access
to your files.
