Just build my own PC. Winfast 6100M2MA motherboard with an AMD Athlon 64 Processor 3500+ 2.21GHz and 1G of RAM, running with XP.
All running fine except for sound. Cannot get it to work with either Headphones or speakers. When I go to Control Panel and Sound on the volume tab, I get 'No Audio Device.
Am I missing something here?

Looked at Sound and Audio devices. Nothing either highlighted in yellow or in yellow text. Am I looking in the right place?
I assume I have to get to the bios from start up?

most motherboards come with a sound chip on them, so check that install disk and also check in the bios that sound is enabled. if you still get no sound, you might need an add-on soundcard.
