Ok here goes.... I have a packard bell pc and it had a virus, my friend took it away and scrubbed the machine of everything then reinstalled windows etc back on - I got it all back in working order apart form the sound - there isnt any! So my question is would I be able to go to the packard bell website and download the sound drivers again after all the packard bell info being scrubbed from my machine or do I need to buy a new sound card?

Hey,
Packard Bell doesn't have a website anymore. HP bought them out years ago. There are Packard Bell website, but not one that has to do with computers. You might, if you are lucky, find a driver on the HP website. If not give http://driverguide.com a try. They have alot of drivers.
Good Luck

seriously?? a pakard bell? I hate to say this but you would be better to put your time and money into buying a new pc. A new sound card may not even work with your system. even if you were to buy a newer used machine.

you will need to do a search for the drivers online. You will need to know what the sound card is in the machine.
