Sound Card Help?

I've installed Redhat 8.0 and it works fine, save for there is no sound at all. I'm using a Creative Ensoniq Floyd LC PCI sound card on a Pavillion 7970. Any ideas on where I could find a driver or what it could be? I tried to go in and update the driver but I guess Redhat doesn't have that feature and I could only see what it was using, not edit it. I am new to linux.

You could try the Alsa drivers. Not sure if they will work for your sound card but theres no harm in trying http://www.alsa-project.org/ They work fine for my ST Audio PCI card. Good luck
