Hello everyone. I recently installed windows 7 and everything is all well except for the sound. I have checked the forum but have found only one thread with this same issue but no solution. I have an Nvidia EVGA 650i Ultra Motherboard. I downloaded the most recent driver from Nvidia and installed it but noticed that it only had the ethernet check box at the start(So i'm guessing the sound drivers were not included but I looked again at the website download page and it lists them. But it was no help). So I then went to the evga website and found the most recent sound driver. I installed it but no sound. I uninstalled it then re-installed it(the driver) again but no sound at all. I checked out the sound department at the computer panel and it recognised the speakers were plugged in and everything else looks very well. I am using a RealTek Audio driver and control panel which recognises that I have plugged in my speakers. Please help me out if you can,
Thank You.
