After installing the Windows operating system, you need to configure all your existing hardware. Sometimes you need to install the correct drivers for devices for which the system could not automatically match them.

Instructions
Step 1
Situations in which the Windows operating system could not automatically find the correct driver for the sound card are extremely rare. This usually happens due to the fact that users are using a rather rare model of this device. The second possible reason is that your sound adapter was created much later than the operating system that you installed.
Step 2
In any case, it is necessary to start the selection of the required driver by checking its presence in the Microsoft database. Open Device Manager. You will find this item after going to the properties of the "My Computer" menu.
Step 3
Select the device for which you want to install or update the driver. In this case, it will be a sound card. Right-click on the device marked with an exclamation mark and select "Update Drivers". In the next window, click on the item "Automatic search for updated drivers". After completing the search, click the "Install" button.
Step 4
If Windows was not able to automatically find the correct driver, then do a manual search. Open any search engine and enter the name of your sound adapter into the search bar, adding the word "driver".
Step 5
Select the driver kit for your device. It is best to download drivers from the official website of the manufacturer of this equipment. Repeat the algorithm described in the third step, but select the "Search for drivers on this computer" item and specify the path to the downloaded files.
Step 6
If both of the above methods did not help you, then use a special program. Let's take the Sam Drivers package as an example. Launch this application and wait for the device scan to complete. Check the box next to the set of drivers that you plan to update or install and click the "Run" button.
