I had a computer that died and today I build a new one with new Motherboard, Processor and Ram. This is the only one hardware changed.

After conected all the hardware I try to run the ubuntu from the old HD without format and re-installed.

The ubuntu running good, except the sound card. I cannot find out the onboard sound card nor the PCI sound card.

When I used the:

lspci -v

I got a list with all the installed devices, including the PCI sound card, where is invisible in the system devices.

What I like to ask is, is there something I can do now in order to make the pre-installed ubuntu to find out all the devices connected on my PC ? Or I have to install again the ubuntu from scratch ?

Kind regards Merianos Nikos
