Let the computer check windows update, just incase they have the driver for you, and when it lets you choose what to do, choose 'Install from a specific location'. Make sure 'Include this location in search' is checked, and click browse to choose the location for the driver. This should be on the cd of the soundcard, and otherwise you can google it on the web. Complete the procedure and everything should be fine. You might need to restart your computer, and make sure nothing is muted at the audio properties. Also make sure that the correct devices are selected when you go to control panel --> Sounds and Audio device --> Audio(tab)

Another thing you could do is to go to the Device manager, find the audio driver, right-click, then uninstall and restart your computer. When it finds the hardware press cancel. Now insert the disk for your audiodevice or just start it, and install the software for your device.
I hope you get your sound workin right;)

The soundcard that i recently installed is working perfectly. With its own drivers. But its the onboard soundcard that is giving me a hassle. For some reason the new pci soundcard doesnt want to do " all " the work.
I think windows is trying to use the onboard soundcard for the windows sounds.

There is a yellow exclamation mark at the Audio Device on High Definition Audio Bus

Ive tried the motherboard drivers, searched for the specific drivers of the onboard soundcard, with no sucess. Nothing is working. Now im thinking of reinstalling windows just to se what happens when its all fresh.
