Nope, I was wrong once again. The processor in an Intel i486 SX. And yes, it was an old office computer used for word processing, which is why it doesn't have a sound card.
Being the newbie at this that I am, I have another problem now that I've gotten my keyboard to work. According to a how-to guide elsewhere on the 'Net, I formatted the hard drive in order to get rid of all the old files still on the computer. However, now upon boot-up I'm getting the error message "Non-system disk or disk error. Replace and press any key when ready" even when there is no floppy in the drive. I made a boot disk, and I'm still getting the same message. I've tested other disks and it's not a bad floppy, and I've looked in CMOS and it seems to be properly set up. I can't think of anything else to do.
Thanks for helping me out; I feel rather stupid for having so many problems when I thought I knew a bit about computers.
