I was just wondering if anybody with a slight computer knowledge might be able to help me. Now, I am not saying that I don't know anything about computers (I just fixed a complete corruption of a Vista kernel, .NET framework destruction and a nvlddmkm.sys death), but I really ran into a wall with this problem.
To start off, I'll link to a picture of my computer's specs, as per EVEREST:

Now, here is my issue. I have a Sound Blaster Audigy SE sound card, but it effectively is disabled until I can get my Multimedia Audio Controller (MAC) functional, as it needs a new driver. Simple, except I don't know who made my MAC and if it is connected to my sound card in any way. I am not sure, as I am not sure if the computer also has a chipset related to the issue.
DirectX Diagnostics also has no help on the issue, as my sound card basically disappeared from existence:

I checked my device manager, and saw that a peculiar question mark is next to the MAC, meaning that it needs an update and won't work until then. Nothing I didn't know. That said, the auto-updater won't work unless I have the disc that came with it (I am pretty sure that I don't) or if I have the driver on my computer already (most certainly not).

So, I am not even sure of where to start. Well, I did start and just got thrown into a few loops.

Any help or ideas?
