51 Try this site:

55 That should tell you exactly what driver you are supposed to use. At
56 least that way you are sure you have the right one.

58 I don't see any conflict but I'm not a sound card expert either. I just
59 recall having that error a couple times. I had it once when I hadn't
60 enabled the correct driver and once when I had two enabled that seemed
61 to conflict with each other. It was a good while back tho.
62
63 Maybe that site will help.
