Its rely annoying

1) look in the add remove programs.. see if there is a c-media entry.. etc. unistall anything for it.

Right click My COmputer > Properties > Hardware Tab
Device manager. Select the component, right click and remove it.

Go here: Download Software, Drivers and Utilities Filters (http://downloadcenter.intel.com/Product_Filter.aspx?ProductID=1704)

Download the newest driver.

Reboot

Install

See if that helps.

Yes, if it still doesn't work.. download and run this:

Download Everest Home Edition 2.20 - Everest Home Edition - a freeware system information, system diagnostics and benchmarking solution - Softpedia (http://www.softpedia.com/get/System/System-Info/Everest-Home-Edition.shtml)

Double check that the multimedia device is in fact the cmedia AC97. If not, then Google for drivers for the dive it lists.
