first Your audio plugs must be on the I/O plate for this driver to work, if you use an expansion slot then you have a Sound Card installed, see here, click the image to focus

if they are on the I/O plate you need to check the BIOS to see if audio is set to [Auto] here's how
click images to focus
as soon as comp boots press the <Delete> key
