are your audio plugs in an expansion slot or in the I/O plate - look here

check this too see if creative or sound blaster audigy is set as default audio
Check Control Panel/ Sound & Audio Devices/ Audio tab/ Sound Playback click on down arrow and check that the correct audio is selected. Typically the problem will be they something like "modem line 0 playback" might have been substituted for the proper audio device

I know I have it in the right slot what I cant find are the drivers for it
