A few things immediately come to mind.

1) While VPC 2004 will run Windows Server 2003 OS, is an unsupported option
(much like installing a linux OS on VPC).

2) The sound card is a Creative Labs SB 16 ISA PnP card. There are no
drivers from Creative's website to download for WinXP or Win2003.

3) Win2003 doesn't include a Microsoft-Certified WHQL driver for the SB16
whatsoever.

4) Virtual Server 2005 does not emulate a sound card at all, so be glad you
have VPC (refer to #1)

I hope this answers your question.

With SP1 of VPC Windows Server 2003 Standard Edition is both a supported
host and guest.

Actually, I face this problem also.
By Mhran Ismail's data, I try to copy this 2 files from Windows XP, and I
can install sound card driver also.
