write down the name of the card and search for the drivers online. If it was like mine, it will be a .exe file. I double clicked it and it installed a program with all the crap like mixer/effects/2 speakers – 5.1 surround etc.
Very simillar to the speaker icon that you get in the bottom right of your screen. Said must restart pc, so I did. When it restarted it said found new hardware, blah blah blah. and whallaaa.. I had sound
