Hi i'm just starting a new thread in reply to another one i made earlier. So, i bought a and the sound card that came with it gave me trouble. I decided after 3 days of no resolve to this problem i bought the Creative Sound Blaster SB0570 Audigy SE. The motherboard detected it as multimedia audio controller. I went right ahead to going online and installing the necessary drivers. everything went fine, programs were launched and installed and it asked me to do the usual restart. i did, but when i log in again i come up to a window that says found new hardware wizard, and that hardware is my card. I just don't get it. I looked at the card and googled the model number and everything, i have the right card and driver. I installed the necessary programs, my computer detects the soundcard, why can't this computer put two and two together? i just don't get it. I went onto the BIOS and disabled the HD audio which was a feature on the sound card ASUS provided me with. I also removed it. Does anyone have any ideas?

Hi,

Your motherboard link is broken. Anyway, I would uninstall any generic driver, and boot into safe mode and install the driver.

If that doesn't work, when the add new hardware wizard, direct it to the CD drive, and pop in the driver CD that came with the card. Then, have it search the CD for the driver, and Windows should find and copy it.
