Be sure the onboard sound is disabled in the BIOS.

Is it the latest driver for that card you are using, or one from the disk you got with the card. Choose a driver thats compatible and download it, but not the same one that you have been using.

Remove the card under device manager, sound video game controllers and try install the driver again.
