How do i correct my sound card

Have you installed the sound card properly? The PCI-E ones need a little push to make them work..

Have you installed the drivers? Visit manufacturers website to download them

Good Luck

First of all connect the speakers to the soundcard not to the mobo.

Go to device manager and uninstall onboard drivers
Restart
Enter bios
Disable onboard sound
Restart
See if hardware manager picks up your card
Load your install suite
If that doesn't work download DriverSweeper
Restart in safemode
Run DriverSweeper and purge all previous sound files related to your application
Restart
Load your card suite
If none of that works you've got me buddy

Assuming all your hardware and connections are correct.

ON BOARD DRIVERS MEAN?? ACTUALLY I DON'T KNOW MUCH ABOUT THESE THINGZ.

Your system came with default sound drivers most likely Realtek or something else.
When you add a discrete sound card you will most likely have a conflict unless you disable your onboard sound drivers.

We could help you if you give us more info on your setup.

and make and model of your sound card
