since windows 2K went haywire on me i upgraded to xp, But now my sound isnt working. i think its a problem with a driver. is there a way to tell what the exact sound card i have is, all i know is its a soundMax?

device manager, to tell what sound card you have. also try rolling back ur driver and if that doesnt work update.

[pieszbob1]

Start
Control Panel
System
Device Mangager
Hardware Tab
Device Manager
Sound, Video, And Game Controllers

Then right click your sound card and select update driver.

ive already tried all of those with no luck

look at the card, there should be a product number on it, then go to google and do a search for the proper drivers.

Explain in detail what isnt happening, Is it just no music playng? Or no sound at all?

sometimes windows has problems recognizing hardware. depending if you have a pci sound card, you can try unmounting the card and restart windows then shutdown. then remount your sound card to see if windows can recognize it correctly.

however, i'm pretty sure it's just a driver error.
