Hi Carol, the following has come from David:
"I'm not sure if you've tried the dell website already, but I had a look on
the Dell website for drivers for your XPS M1210 laptop. The driver for the
sigmatel sound card is available from the following page which contains a
"download now" link:
http://tinyurl.com/2uwnck

Also on that page, are the following instructions for enabling stereo mix:

To enable Stereo Mix:

1. Run Sounds and Audio Devices Properties from Control Panel 2. Click Audio
tab, Volume (Sound Recording) 3. Click Options, Properties, Recording 4.
Enable Stereo Mix slider, click OK 5. Select Stereo Mix as input device

Just to note that the main page for drivers for your laptop is:
http://tinyurl.com/328nw5

Re the installing of the drivers, 
after downloading, run the file (which is r127097 (and an exe file)  and
just follow the prompts.  It did work fine for us here.  

Suggest you might want to do it when you've got sighted assistance around,
as if the driver doesn't work, you may lose speech unless you've got a
hardware synth available.  
 
Hope this is helpful.
