My mates accidentally deleted his audio driver from the add/remove program list and I don't know where I can get a replacement from! He has onboard audio and is running an Intel Celeron PC thats about 3-4 years old. Would anyone have any idea where I could get the driver from??

I have no idea why the turd response was "what motherboard have you got" - Simple question to ask was - is it a laptop or PC - if a laptop, what make and model.
If its windows XP - try this driver:
Avance-RealtekAC97.zip
Select the 2nd option (Download this file by viewing a series of ads (no registration required))
It will show you 1 Advertisement and all you do is click NO and No thanks and the file will then contact the download location.
I just did it and it took me 15 seconds.0 -
Try going to system and remove the sound devices.
Then reboot computer and see if it locates the drivers and reinstals the devices.0 -
