No SOund

After reformating my computer, it does not recognize my soundcard driver.

Any information on where I could get the right driver or something?

Always keep up to date with your drivers for all the hardware you have. If the problem persists I suggest contacting your manufacturer or just downloading the latest driver/s.

Well thats the problem, I do not know what soundcard I have. My computer does not even recognize that I have a Sound Hardware.

But im certainly sure I do. Are there any website that can automatically detect what you have for you?

Start >> Control Panel >> Performance and Maintenance >> System >> Hardware >> Device Manager >> Sound, video and game controllers.

This should give you a list. Note what is in that list and brief us back with your list, look for Creative as thats one of thee best known sound card manufacturers for its Audigy selection etc.

If the card is not yet fully recognized by Windows you may need to pull the card out and physically check the make and model number. Head to the manufacture first for the drivers or try Driverguide.com. user name= Driver / password = all

I found a great program to have around for identification problems.

http://www.lavalys.com/products/over...ng=en&pageid=1

I was using this when it use to be called Aida32, EVEREST can identify hardware that doesn't even have drivers installed, or drivers are corrupted.
The Home version is freeware. It's a good way to identify things without cracking the case (which if it's a brand name pc like gateway or dell, can void your warranty).
