Answer 1

Open up the computer, and put the cards in. BIOS should pick up the ram right away. You may need to go to your sound card manufacturers site to DL a driver.

XP has zero to do with this.  

Answer 2

is it a laptop or desktop. you can only change sound cards on desktops. all you have to do is open the desktop, unplug the sound card, plug in the new one and go the manufactureres website and download the drivers.

Answer 3

Actually Acer is a good brand and a lot of other brands use their products inside them.

Acer puts packages together and markets them to retailers based on price.  You have to be very careful when shopping for a PC because retailers do a lot of "puffing".  ( a sales term for over stating performance or value).  It's not right, but they all do it.

You can add RAM to your computer fairly cheaply. If you are not sure how to do this, check with a local computer repair shop, the can do it for you.  

The sound issue is either that it is not installed correctly, or the sound drivers for the chipset are not working.  If this is a new computer, call their help line, they can help you fix it.
