I've used that board in the past. It uses creative's
CT5880 integrated sound.
What OS are you using?

These drivers have always worked for me:

look in the device manager for any conflicts.

Look on the board for any capacitors that appear puffed up on the top.
Some may even have dried substance on top oozing out.

Bad caps are often overlooked on motherboard problems.
