Audio not working; Drivers installed.
I've been having this problem ever since I System Restored my computer.

My computer wont recognize any audio devices plugged into it, so I thought that my audio drivers weren't installed, but under device manager it says "Legacy Audio Drivers".

Upon further inspection in the Device manager I find something out of place. Under "Other Devices", everything has an exclamation mark next to it; "Ethernet Controller", "PCI Device", "Sm Bus Controller", and "Video Controller (VGA compatible)", and it says that none of them are installed.

Is any of this related at all to my sound issue?

Also these are the system specs, copy pasted from DxDiag, hope its good enough.

Code:
Operating System: Microsoft Windows XP Home Edition (5.1, Build 2600) Service Pack 1 (2600.xpsp1.020828-1920)
           Language: English (Regional Setting: English)

             Memory: 502MB RAM
