Windows finds, then loses, sound cards by [email protected]
Hello, I have a problem that I haven't seen here yet, although I expect it is here somewhere. I have a desktop PC, 350 MHz, running Win98SE. One day it "lost" the sound card. I re-installed it, and went through all the steps of installing drivers. Windows said it was installed correctly.
