It's not in any of the PCI slots??
I press start, run and type in DXDIAG and under the display tab it says: Intel(R) 82915G/GV/910GL Express Chipset Family?
and for sound it says: Realtek Audio Rear Output?
Type: WDM?
Please can you tell me what this means?

They're integrated into the motherboard - if you know what you're looking for you'll find the chipsets within the motherboard itself, and not on a separate "expansion" card.
If you are intending to upgrade them, you need to disable the onboard sound and graphics chipsets within the system bios, and install the new cards. Sound card will be PCI, graphics will be either AGP or PCI-express, depending on your computer (probably AGP if its got onboard graphics).
If you have a PCI graphics card don't use it, it must be so old!

Your video and audio are in the big black chips on the motherboard. If you get a torch you can read the numbers and manufacturers, in your case Realtek and Intel. WDM is a Microsoft standard Windows Driver for your chip.

this is simply a store bought computer with onboard vidoe and sound chip. intel is the chip maker for the mother board, and realtek is the chip maker for the sound,, no cards needed it a basic set up!

It's likely that you video and sound is integrated on the motherboard. Check with the motherboard manufacturer.

The sound is built-in on motherboard instead of a PCI card.
