You really should open it up. Takes only some minutes and no fuss. It should always work ;)

I found something: I think the sound chip is Opti 89c930. Check if you find something like that inside?

From googling, it seems the module for this sound chip is 'mad16'.
So, we could try `modprobe mad16` and see if it works.

Screw this i'm opening it up. Theres no one around. Last time my brother got mad at me when i started unscrewing it.

EDIT: Ok i opened it up. I didn't know where to look so i put it back together. Now when i turn it on it beeps about 15 times and nothing happens on the screen. What the hell is going on.

EDIT#2: Ok its all good now. I reopened it and made sure all the connections were all good and put it back together and it works again. Now i need to know what the hell i'm looking for before i just pop it open again.
