Aaron: Maybe this would help: About five years ago, my daughter-in-law was given a Dell desktop machine by her employer. Everything worked except for the sound card. We found a coated paper sticker on the rear of the case that had the Dell serial number on it. Digging around on the Dell support site with that number, I was able to find the complete bill of materials for that specific computer showing everything that had been installed when it left the Dell plant. There were also links to the computer manuals which could be read online, as well as other information related to the specific components. Might be worth a shot. -- cmg
