how to install the second iso software package please help

and my sound card wont work
its a nvidia geforce mx200 64 mb agp video card

oops that was my video card heh
 

but how could i get my sound to work... if any of u ever had trouble with it before

If this machine is newer the sound is probably a pci device. Try the command "lspci" and post back with what it outputs as related to sound. The second CD, wasn't that contrib? If its sources you don't need it unless you want to recompile a bunch of stuff for yourself, except for the kernel, that was on CD 1. If you want stuff off of the contrib CD, just mount the CD, figure out what you want to install and use pkgtool.

This should work:

modprobe soundcore
modprobe es1371

The try playing something. Offhand, usually your settings are muted to begin with. If that was the right one, uncomment them from /etc/rc.modules and they'll load at boot.
