I then reinstalled the drivers and upgraded them, but the sound still does not work. I looked under the device manager to see if my card was recognized and it is, but when I opened the sounds and audio devices in the control panel it said there was no sound device. but it was under the hardware tab. I tried doing everything I had already done again with the same results.
