Dell Inspiron 1520 XP Audio Problem

Hi, I just newly installed Windows XP Pro to my Dell Inspiron 1520 notebook, but audio driver for windows xp does not work! That's what i did in order : 1. Installed Windows XP Pro 2. Installed Intel Chipset Drivers first (R153997.exe) 3. Installed VGA Drivers (R160738.exe) 4. Tried installing Audio Drivers (R158235.exe) ,but it says "There is no supportable hardware for this computer" Is there anyone who completed installing audio drivers correctly? Please help me Ozan

Normally the order would be:

a. Install Dell Notebook System Software R161278(click the + sign next to System Utilities). Restart.

b. Next install the Intel Mobile Chipset driver R153997 (click the + sign next to Chipset). Restart.

c. Finally install the Sigmatel audio driver R158235 (click the + sign next to Audio).

Get these all from
1520 XP downloads page

Some posters who used this driver on a different model of Inspiron wrote "... you have to uninstall an unknown PCI device in Device manager first , then install the driver normally". I don't know if this applies to the 1520 too.

Thanks for your help but it still does not work. I downloaded all correct drivers for Windows XP SP2 (language TR) and tried your way. It still says "There is no supported drivers in your system for that driver" after the restart. What can i do to hear any sound from my notebook? Please help me. Thanks in advance. Ozan
