my "multiple audio controller" in device manager had the infamous yellow questionamark, so what I did a search of my computer on everest. then I went to intel and got a soundmax driver that fit with my computor (or at least that I thought fit with it). then after I installed it I got an error message that said "severe. Driver not found! please reboot and run setup again". I keep rebooting and reinstalling but it doesnt work, Thank you for any help. here is my everest info.
