Hello- I would like to download the sound drivers for Windos 7 Ultimate for the Asus K8V SE Delxe motherboard

Good luck with that. Asus doesn't have anything out there for that motherboard for anything past Windows 2003 or XP back in 2005.

Did windows not install any of it's own drivers when you installed 7? You could try using the XP drivers and see if that works

Unless Windows 7 installs a generic driver that works you're likely out of luck. I highly doubt that XP drivers will work, especially if you have 64-bit Windows 7. (the onboard sound is probably pretty crappy anyway)

*What you CAN do is:
a) buy an inexpensive PCI audio card and install the drivers ($30)
b) disable the onboard sound in the BIOS

Here's two cards:
