Question re Windows 2K Device Manager

Factual Questions
1

I just reinstalled Windows 2000 on a new drive and so far everything works…I had to buy a new sound card because it would just not recognize the drivers for the old one.

Well, now every time it boots up, I get the New Hardware Found wizard. It keeps finding the new sound card (Multimedia Audio Controller), even though it shows up in Device Manager, is fully installed and has no conflicts.

Does anyone know how I could get Windows to stop finding the new device every time? Thank you.

Bump?

Is there a sound card on the motherboard that it keeps detecting?

Also, some sound cards show up as multiple devices, even though it’s only one physical card (mine shows up as four devices, for example). Perhaps one of the secondary devices is not installed properly?

You may need to delete the entry that is already there and let it detect it again. It shouldn’t hurt anything to try that. I have had success with that method.
