If 2 pc's are parralleled, do you need sound drivers, chips and or cards  in both?

Hi Z. I'm not familiar with your "parallel" term (or "integrate", for that matter!).\nI guess u mean you're NETWORKING the 2 PCs ?\n\nIf so, yes, I think you do need drivers, cards, etc in each one, so each PC can stand on its own 2 feet.\n\nShame about the lost drivers ... I have no idea, except to look on the net (maybe a Packard-Bell site?) where just about EVERYTHING seems "available", if only you can find it !

Use an ethernet.  You'll need an ethernet card for both computers.  Many of the modern motherboards for desktops have built-in ethernet and most modern laptops use a modem card or motherboard which have built in ethernet.  You'll have to figure out what kind of hardware you have, basically.  After that it's a matter of making sure you've the correct protocols installed, which are usually just the same thing you'll use for the internet, and then connecting the computers with an ethernet cord (an RJ somethingorother).

if you know your sound cards manufacture go to www.driversguide.com and get them you will need to reg. first but it is free. you might get Lucky and try the computers man. web site if it is a on-board sound that means it is built in to the mother board

I use one USB adapter. Yes you need a Driver to install the Hardware as others do. It works almost like a PCI Wireless card. I do not prefer it coz it take my usb port, i prefer a PCI card. Networking and all is almost the same, no effect

Yeah, you're correct.  Motherboards and harddrives NEVER get along, you can only use one or the other.

Yes, it is possible for you to install the sound card, if, you can purchase a sound card from computer hardware shop, tell the configuration of ur computer to them, they'll give you the best compatible sound card for ur PC presuming a PCI sound card, it should come with installation instruction guide and driver disk. Then, just open the cabinet of the CPU, look for the PCI slot (white in colour), plug in the sound card into it and screw it up properly, remember to power off the computer before doing above task. Then close the cabinet, turn on the computer. windows will detect the new sound card recently installed and will ask for the driver for it, just insert the disk came with sound card, and follow the instructions by using instruction guide came with the sound card. Remember to restart the computer if it ask to do so. Enjoy.

There should not be any problems. Your main board Bios should automatically detect the sound card and shut off the on-board sound chips.\n\nJust in case your system is not too "intelligent" you may want to go into the Bios settings and see if you need to turn off the on-board sound chip.

check if the sound card driver are ok

You need a sound card to get sound.  Check the back of you pc to see if you have 3-4 small holes (they maybe green, red and black) with symbols of a microphone or speaker next to them.  If you see that, then you have a sound card and may need to install the drivers.

you can look up the system board manufacturer and they should be able to tell you which integrated sound card you have... you will have to go to there web site and do the research

That sounds like several things. CPU? RAM? PCI BUS?

the BEST is 2 PCI express 16 cards but your motherboard needs to support. new models come out every day so it changes ATI & nvidia are the 2 leaders

you cant, it requires a CPU and motherboard to control it ... its an "add-on" card

u could great a network if both machines have network cards and booth running windows xp and u would just need a crossover cable. \nand below is the guide.\nhttp://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/using/networking/default.mspx\n\nor if the main pc has a dvd writer u can burn it all to 1 dvd disk\nor use the pen drive between.

Just open it up and look at the card, I would bet it is integrated sound all the same, and if it is would probably be either 8331 or NVIDIA.  There is also a nifty tool called DriverGuide Toolkit, and it is free available here.\n\nhttp://www.driverguidetoolkit.com/
