What is the make and model of your Dell system? Go to Dell's support site and download the drivers for your sound card.

ok, thanks a lot. yeah, when i went to device manager, it said no devive found. so the driver issue would make sense, considering it is intergrated audio. thanks again for the help. as always, i came here and my problem was solved. lol you guys have a good day, and GOD BLESS.
