Default Compaq Armada 1700 Sound Card problems

After upgrading my Compaq Armada 1700 to Windows Xp the sound card
does not work and downloading drivers does not help. I can't even get
into the Bios to change the plug and play settings.

What can I do?

FWIW, a friend of mine upgraded his Armada 1700 to XP. It had issues he
couldn't live with, although I can't remember if the sound card being dead
was one of them. He ended up going back to W2K Pro. Seemed to behave much
better.
