It just shows ES1938-4CH on my sound card

Adam Moore3 said:Fair enough, but are you actually planning on using XP? You mentioned everything runs fine on Windows 7, so I assume that's your main OS. Also, stay far away from DriverPack Solution and those other driver update tools. Find them manually; those programs are garbage, at least in my experience. Just identify your sound card model, go straight to the manufacturer's website, and download the driver from there. It’s foolproof. Those automated tools often install outdated or completely incorrect drivers.

Honestly, this machine is basically a paperweight :3. My actual PC for heavy lifting—like gaming—is currently broken, so I won't have access to it for a while... what a pain...

By the way, when I listen to music, I crank the volume all the way up. The quality from the integrated audio is pretty weak compared to this dedicated card I just installed. That's really the only reason I'd even bother with XP, since it isn't demanding. This is just meant to be a backup computer.😁

Hi there 😁

I am having some trouble with my audio setup, to put it briefly 😁

My PC has an integrated sound card as well as a dedicated sound card I added separately...
When I install Windows XP, the audio only works through the integrated card, while the dedicated one remains silent (even though I installed the driver using DriverPack Solution 2014)

However, when I install Windows 7, the audio works perfectly fine through the dedicated sound card...

Where is the issue?
