Double check the CD's you got with the computer, the SoundMax drivers are on one of the CD's. If you misplaced the CD(s) or overlooked it when you got your PC, you can download the applicable drivers from the Dell Downloads section (tab at top of page).
You should also be able to purchase the missing CD form Dell as long as it's a current production model. The only CD you can't get a "replacement" for is the Operating System CD (or if you lose the key which is attached to the PC).

By the way i have seen a couple of posts mentioning that reinstalling the saoundmax driver doesn't work, because during the install there's this message saying that it can't find the driver...
But I haven't seen any answer from dell support people to that !

The most common cause of this error is the fact that the Intel Chipset drivers have not yet been installed. Install this driver package before reinstalling any other drivers or software. After those have been successfully installed, you should then be able to install the audio, video, network, USB, and modem drivers, if applicable.
