[MENTION=38768]saad51233[/MENTION]! First of all, its not a Proper way of asking help. Posting just a picture and the magic word "Help" with it doesn't attract much attention.

Coming to your query ...

Is it possible that you are trying to install a wrong driver on your machine?

Its possible that the correct driver is Realtek AC97 instead of Soundmax. Now its you who should know about it.

However, to make the solution easier, get yourself a Universal Driver's Disc. A CD usually have 20k+ drivers in it. It 'should' work for you.

If you are having difficulty in Removing the drivers then use the Driver Sweeper. Download from HERE.
Run it in Safe Mode and Sweep/Clean the Audio drivers with it.
Now ... withtout restarting your system, Use the "Update" feature in 'Device Manager' for your Audio Driver. Use the "Universal Drivers' Disk".

Spoiler: show

If "Drivers Sweeper" gives you any error or is unable to run ... then make sure you have Dot Net Framework 3.5 installed.

His OS doesn't even recognizes his sound card; how can he install it? There must be something wrong, otherwise it should have shown some sort of sign.

Like: I've an external sound card installed, thus I didn't installed internal sound card drivers at all. Still, it gives me an option.

----

Having said that, the drivers he's trying to remove comes pre-installed with the operating system itself. I don't think they can be removed without doing something special.

let me explain it to you a bit more i had given my pc to a pc repairing sop for repairing so he messed up with me lan card(there was no promlem with it) and inserted a new sound card to make money.he had done sometinhg with me sound card too and inserted a new usb sound card which worked for an hour only so i think he might have removed a cord or a wire that connects the sound card from the motherboard you guys should first tell me how a built in sound card is connected to a mother board. elaborating with a picture will help me more
