    If you find out the sound card manufactuerer and model number, I suggest you go to their website and re-download the drivers.

    Does this new video card work now?

        vista's got loads of problems.

        suggest u do what carbon suggested.

        u can check ur audio card details through device manager.

        I was pondering that question in my head as well...

        Vista has gotten better over the past few months.

           Well of course I'm not as good at these things as you all are that's why i asked. The sound is integrated into the motherboard and is a realtek, and yes I've tried re downloading the driver 3 times and it keeps telling me that it doesn't recognize the driver.I think if it had been an XP OS I would've already figured it out

          Where did you get those audio drivers from, and how did you try to install them?
