I went to Dell support website / driver downloads and selected drivers for 531S Windows XP. I cannot get Sound to work and on Device Manager it shows PCI device with a yellow question mark. The details for "PCI device" are "PCI Bus 0, device 5, function 0. I have gone to Driver Agent website and run a scan..it show bad drivers for PCI Device but no download.
