MS indicates this can be caused by heavy disk activity during startup.

It's as if the icon status isn't reflecting the physical status. If you toggle the mute , tends to correct itself. (Win7 problem)

try the above first then if that fails
remove the card. then uninstall the drivers. use a reg cleaner (ccleaner is good and free). reboot the system...
turn off and put the card back in and boot. the new hardware should be recognised and windows will load the correct driver for it. if it doesnt then you need to go to the cards manufacturers site and download the windows 7 driver. if there is no driver then the card is unsupported and useless.
all you can then do is plug your speakers into the motherboards sound and use that...
