Have you tried drivers from the manufacturers website?

Apolutrosi, check your BIOS settings, have you 'Onboard Audio' enabled?

Without a Sound Card it will be default enabled.

I presume OP has no Sound Cad, or (s)he wouldn't want drivers for the onboard chip.

Check out the manufacturers site as Dave said.

Well, if (s)he's got 'enabled' in BIOS, and no driver, winXP should detect this card as 'Unknown device', shouldn't?

SP3... check this (google translator)

Probably, yes, but we don't know that it's not.

If you go into Device Manager (Right Click My Computer > Manage > Device Manager) can you see is under Sound, Video, and Game Controllers?

I read, he has SP3, I added a link in my post above... I think this should help him
