New Sound Card Driver

August 11, 2008

Windows Update can search for updated sound card drivers and install them automatically, but if you already have a new driver you want to install, you can do this yourself.

Out-of-date drivers can cause sound problems, so it is a good idea to install the latest driver for your sound card.

Follow these steps:

1. Open Device Manager by clicking the Start button , clicking Control Panel, clicking System and Maintenance, and then clicking Device Manager.? If you are prompted for an administrator password or confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.

2. In Device Manager, locate your sound card under Sound, video and game controllers, and then double-click the device name.

3. Click the Driver tab, and then click Update Driver.
