Hi and welcome to MG's,
you should of created a new thread rather than jump in and open an old one.
Ok so you have downloaded and ran the set up for the driver from the site??
was it this driver here....

I need to know at what service pack that your OS is at sp1/sp2 or sp3.

Go here... start> control panel> admin tools> services.... check to see if the services for audio are started and set to automatic (see attachments). right click on Multimedia class scheduler and check the settings are the same as mine, same goes for the Windows audio service.
