Windows mixer

I have loaded sp2 for windows xp. Now there is no mixer available.
How do I get it back. Also I cannot restore the system past the date
that sp2 was installed.

You should be able to UNINSTALL SP2 - do not depend on System Restore for
this. Control Panel --> Add or Remove Programs should be your first choice
*if* you think you need to remove a program *you* installed. More than
likely the System Restore for SP2 took up so much space - it erased all
previous restore points.

In any case - have you just gone to the manufacturer's web page (for the
sound device) and downloaded/installed the latest hardware drivers for the
hardware in question? You will want to do this for your motherboard chipset
first, then video, sound, network card...
