no sound or USBs

[ldavis33]

I reloaded windows XP on my computer and since then I have no sound and when I plug any device into the usb ports I get nothing. As if I never plugged anything in. PLEASE HELP ME!!!!
Thanks, LD

you will need to install the drivers for the onboard sound and usb ports, they will probably be on the cd that came with your pc/motherboard

another question?????

what if I do not have the CD that came with the computer?

Use PC wizard, found at http://www.cpuid.com/pcwizard.php, once installed, go to the mainboard section under the hardware tab, once the mainboard section is selected, it will tell you on the right, at th top what mainboard you have, copy and paste that in your reply.
