Is this an on-board sound card? If so, go to the motherboard's website and download the sound drivers from there, that way you will get the most up to date drivers for your sound card. If this does not work, I would suggest just buying a new sound card, they are not expensive at all (around $30) and they sound much better then an on board sound card.
