Ok. Where to start. About a week ago I did a windows update. I saw that I had some optional updates for windows. I decided to download those. Which included C-media AC97. Now my device manager is saying C-media will not install correctly and my sound doesn't work at all. I tried to uninstall the C-media AC97, but that doesn't work and somehow re installs itself. I'm pretty sure I didn't have C-media AC97 on my computer before. I appreicate any help that I can get.


I used the belarc advisor and here is the info.
