motherboard??? sound card???

I bought my sony vaio pvc rs-220 about a year ago. I havenīt had any problems but the windows got mixed up so i had to install it again. So I installed windows xp professional on it but the new windows doesnt know what motherboard the computer has and neither do I. So if someone could tell me where i could get the drivers for the motherboard and the sound card i would be very thankful.
PCV-RS320 better alternative

The designtechnica review was absolutely helpful. I actually owned a RS220 but retrurned it after reading the review. Having no AGP slot came as a shock to me...Best Buy took it back no problem and cited "wrong specs quoted" as the reason.
The better alternative to the RS220 would be the RS320 which uses another intel motherboard that gives the user a bit more expandability (2 empty RAM slots, expandable to 2Gb of ram and of course that missing AGP slot, 2 firewire inputs and 6 USB) all for approximately 50 bucks more. The RS320 also includes works, money and age of empires in its software bundle.
Overall though, the RS220 is a decent system, perfect for your college student or home office use. But as the review stated, you can get more bang for your buck with cyberpower, ibuypower.......even better than the dell and gateway option.
