My PC is a Dell Dimension 5000 Series. I have already tried downloading new drivers for the audio systems but this has not helped. ANY advice would be welcome.

The device may be there but it may not recognise it as an audio device.
Check in Other devices under Device manager to see if it is there.
Also, check your sound settings to make sure nothing is muted. Mute settings are also saved in Media player so check this too.
I think XP has a Sound troubleshooter too so try this - it may help.

verify the cardboard. attempt it in yet another slot. See what comes up. on the different hand, bypass to device supervisor under device, and see if there's a yellow mark against the device. additionally, possibly an attempt to load by using the upload HARDWARE approach, and see if the cardboard is recognized. verify your innovations under Audio enjoying cards, and see what's checked and what isn't checked. Thats as much as i will think of of... Thats the huge spectrum of exams i take advantage of in fixing countless desktops

Have you gone to Control Panel, Audio and Sounds, open volume control and make sure all mutes are off and all volumes are turned up at least 3/4 way.

Try deleting the audio devices in the device section.. and see if it will resense them (plug and play) and follow the instructions to reinstal any drivers..

well, if you're sure you downloaded the correct driver
http://support.dell.com/support/downloads/download.aspx?c=us&l=en&s=gen&releaseid=R94481&SystemID=DIM_PNT_P4_5000&os=WW1&osl=en&deviceid=2430&devlib=0&typecnt=1&vercnt=2&formatcnt=1&libid=3&fileid=122481
then, did you switch the audio leads/move the computer?
Is the audio perhaps muted?
are the speakers on?
Sorry if these seem lame questions but you'd be surprised how often it is a lame problem.
