Sound card driver problem

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.windowsxp.device_driver.dev (More info?)

Uninstall the SB software.

Turn off the PC and physically remove the SB card.

Turn on the PC and let Windows complete its startup. Ensure that there are
NO references left in the Device Manager to the SB card.

Turn off the PC.

Physically reinstall the card .... if possible in an alternative PCI slot.
DO NOT use the PCI slot next to the AGP port as it is KNOWN to cause
problems. If possible, use the PCI slot FURTHEST away from the AGP slot.

Turn on the PC. See if XP installs the correct drivers by itself. Ensure
the speakers are turned on and connected to the right output sockets of the
SB card.

How is it working now?
