Can't find a DL series
All the MusicXPC pro laptops were designated in a series M1 - M4 are there any other identifiers on the case?
This is the M2 as an example

That will at least give you a clue about the hardware!
Wonder if what you've found is a rebadged Compal DL71?

Doe this look likely?
Install an older model's drivers if the only ones for which you have a choice are 'too old' or 'too new'. Getting something a little older usually works.
go to the device manager. select the device you're looking for and then click the details tab. in the window you'll see a hardware identifier. google search what you find there
1) You could try to contact the Support from http://www.musicxpc.com and with the serial number from Laptop they might help you with the right drivers.
2) You can search by yourself in big databases of drivers from different websites as http://www.driverguide.com/ , http://www.drivermax.com/driver/search/ , http://driverzone.com/ 
3) You can use an additional software that will scan your computer and if you have internet connection then will report you what kind of software you need to install, name and version, as for instance http://www.driverdetective.org/  , http://www.radarsync.com/ , http://www.devicedoctor.com/
