Simple, so you may have already tried it. Just go to Device Manager, find device, right click,tell to update driver,see if Wizard finds anything.

Dont you have the disks that came with the system? The driver should be on the mother board disk...

Giving the info you have tells us nothing. Is it a RealTek AC'97? Is it Soundmax? It is Via? They all have a AC'97 Audio Controller card out there. Without knowing that you wont be able to find drivers.

is it a Gateway Computer? if so the regular soundmax just won't work

go to

How to install Missing Drivers.

and follow the instructions for the sound driver. I've just had this issue yesterday on that exact driver

Just finished a fresh install. In Windows Update, there was a driver they said was not detected on my machine. You guessed it. AC 97 Audio Controller.
