No Audio drivers/sound card manufacturer recognition for 3000 N100 Lenovo laptop

[1machiavelli]

Hello,

I thought I would ask for some help.

Spec;3000 n100 near keyboard to left. 0768-76A serial number underneath. Reinstalled recently, xp sp3 and I have lost the sound drivers. I went to the page below but it doesn't want to know, I install driver and nothing happens. I try to install the pre driver package and it says that because I have sp3 on this install, it comes up with a system install error!!!

It's the audio driver at the bottom of the page.

Pc wizard says this;  Device Audio :    82801G (ICH7 Family) High Definition Audio Controller

Can you tell me who makes the audio card and I can go to there website and upload from there if possible?

I have spent many hours trying to get these drivers. I can normally sort most probs, but I can't find anything.

Regards and thanks, Chris.
