Hi,
It sounds like you have not installed you sound card drivers, if you have a separate sound card, use the CD that came with the sound card.
If your sound is integrated in your motherboard, use the Cd that came with your PC or motherboard. If you have trouble, search on line for "installing sound device drivers"
How do you know you had a BIOS crash?
Did you do anything to cause a BIOS crash?
Did you do anything to fix it before reinstalling Windows?

BIOS battery died had to re install windows xp home.
now no c media 97 system sound, cmicnfg.cpl error flags up

BIOS battery died had to re install windows xp home.

all you had to do was install new battery and set bios defaults and fix the time /date ! never heard of having to reinstall windows for that reason.
