Audio Problems after Home Premium to Ultimate Upgrade

Last night, I upgraded from Vista Home Premium to Vista Ultimate using
Windows Anytime Upgrade. Before doing so, my sound was working fine. Now I've
got a little "x" over the audio symbol on the task bar, and it says "No Audio
Output Device is Installed." Does anyone know how I can fix this?

Have you tried to uninstall/reinstall the sound drivers?

Just went to Dell's website and downloaded a new driver and it works again!
Thanks!
