I installed recently a fresh copy of Linux Mint 6 on my friend laptop who wanted to use Linux ( he is a newbee to linux ).

But the sound system is not working. Previously i tried to install a copy of my system (using remastersys) in his laptop it gave the same problem previously....(sound system not working). Even the sound "test" in System > Preferences > Sound also showing an error saying "can't find stream"....!!
His laptop is "Compaq Presario CQ40".
What is my main problem is "my friend may loose intrest in linuz"??:(
(NOTE: in VISTA the sound system is good !!??)
Can any one help me plzz????
