Hello,
USUALLY, no sound on a system that you just loaded XP on, means XP could not recognize the sound card so it could not install the drivers for the sound card.
If you know EXACTLY what sound device you have ( seperate card or on motherboard), go to the manufacturer's web site and hopefully they support and have XP drivers. An indication of this problem could be seen by right clicking on "My Computer", left click "Manage", go to "Device Manager". You can get there other ways too. Look under sound, look for question marks and you'll see you probably have a not properly installed sound card or no sound but an unknown device.
You can also go to "Start", "Control Panel" "Sound and Audio Devices" and see what in going on in that area.
Just in case, make sure any hardware volume controls are turned up. Feel free to call me, my contact info is on my web site at TheITDoctor.com .
