Dell Dimension 9100 - Creative Sound Blaster X-Fi - NO sound

Hi all, I have recently had to do a system restore on my Dell Dimension 9100 (Windows XP SP2) and revert it back to it's factory settings (as new). I realise the machine is old but I've never really had any problems with it and since the restore, I've had no sound at all.

Hi all,

I have recently had to do a system restore on my Dell Dimension 9100 (Windows XP SP2) and revert it back to it's factory settings (as new). I realise the machine is old but I've never really had any problems with it and since the restore, I've had no sound at all. Not for music, no system sounds, no nothing.

I've run every diagnostic test and all other tests I could have possibly run, all to no avail. I have tried to download new/latest drivers but I'm not entirely sure where the problem actually is.

I'd be so grateful if anyone could advise me or suggest anything that may help at all. I'm pulling my hair out and wondering if a new PC is the answer (last resort though really).

Thank you for reading,
Laura x
