I'm thinking removing the soundcard drivers and going into the devices thing in the controll pannel and removing the soundcard then re-installing. You have to remove the drivers then stuff from the registry then remove the device from the controll pannel. Finally, re-install everything. Windows only upgrades when you say re-install if you don't remove first. If you can, put the sound card in another computer and see if it works. That's the only real way to test it.
