Figuring out onboard sound card

[Zerolife]

my friends computer has an on board audio sound card that we dont know the name too and the computer was reformatted. Tryin to look up model but not luck, it was built by hand. Any way we could figure this out now? or is it a bit too late. If its late, we could always just buy a sound card, but it'd be nice to just be able to get the name now. Thanks in advance for any help

Laptop or desktop? Is there an OS on it? if so you could download a program like everest which will tell you the specifics of your computer

The motherboard model number is what you need.

alright i installed everest, but i really dont know what im lookin at lol, nothin stuck out at me, so maybe everest isnt telling me? or am i missing something here. If i find the motherboard model, if i look up the specs online would i tell me drivers fori t? i assume it would, but im just checkin. Its a desktop btw, almost forgot to say.

thanks
