Different things related to my sound card have stopped working. First a learn a language program said "you have
a sound card problem", then our game port stopped recognizing the wheel or joystick , then I couldn't record
wave files becuase the record volume is set to zero and the controls for record volume is grey and can't be
changed, then my Easy CD Creator won't create a cd even though it will download a song from CD to the hard
drive.This all happened in a period of 4 months. The sound card is a Creative AWE64 16-bit audio set to IRQ 05
DMA channel 05(I printed out the system properties) . The device manager gives me a yellow ! mark in front of
the sound card. When I go to properties it says the sound card is not connected,disabled or needs a driver CODE 10. I
have installed the drivers from the supplied CD. MP3s,Cds,and wave files all play fine.I am using Windows 95
on a 300MHZ PII, 196 SDRAM. What is wrong?

Have you completely removed the drivers for the sound card before you reinstalled them? Go into device manager and remove all drivers pertaining to the card. Then shutdown your computer, some techs say to remove the card, reboot and then remove the drivers, if all else fails, try this, but first just remove them, shut down and power down then reboot, it should recognize the card and do it automatically.
