Patrick,
Compaq is tricky in that they like to wipe all information from the hardware they stick in their systems.
Best thing to do is to either id the card via the chip by using the link via windrivers or going straight to Compaq.com and getting the manual for your particular system. The online manual is rather massive and will tell you everything you should know right now to configuration on the motherboard. This is different than the manual they provide when you purchase the system.
Good luck!

This link will take you to the right place on Compaq Website. From here on you can Email a Support Specialist. I looked for the soundcard drivers here but no luck.
