What make and model is your comp, the Via Kx133 is the chipset and everyone makes that board, from what you have shown it appears as if your sound card is a Creative SB live, do you have digital sound, are you sound plugs set away from mouse and keyboard lower down the back of comp.

Good idea to Bookmark this site as all your drivers are listed.

Create a System Restore Point before each installation just in case

Go here http://www.msi.com.tw/program/suppor...UID=656&kind=1

You need to download 2 drivers and save to where you can rember where to find them

First the VIA Chipset 4 in 1 drivers have to be installed then RESTART the computer

Then the Realtek ALC Series AC'97 Audio Drivers, install and again RESTART the computer.

Hope this helps
