Nokia C3: Dell Dimension 8300 audio device drivers

Dell Dimension 8300 audio device drivers
I have Dell Dimension 8300 computer at my home which I recently formatted. I don't have the drivers CD with me for this computer and so I am in search for this. Some how I installed most of the drivers except audio device drivers. I searched a lot but didn't found it. Can you show me a way where I can download the audio device drivers for my Dell Dimension 8300 computer?

I think you have not tried the Dell website. Because if you had went to Dell, you should have not made this thread. You can visit this link:
Dimension 8300 Drivers and Downloads by selecting your operating system and Language. I hope this helps.

Are you sure you don't have the drivers or is it that you are unable to hear any sound or got some error? If so then just confirm if Windows Audio Service has been started. Go to Desktop and right click on My Computer, select Manage and then Services. Look for Windows Audio and double-click on it to start the service.

You are awesome, thank you so much!!! It worked like a charm. Dell never likes to put drivers and/or the correct drivers on their website in my experience. TYVM
