Go to Dell's site and download the drivers for this computer directly from them. BTW, I don't see that sound card as an option on the E520 so maybe there was sound card plugged in before and someone removed it before you got the computer. Most Dell's require the chipset drivers to be installed first and then all the other "onboard" drivers after that.
