Hey, I recently had to reinstall all my drivers, and I have a cd a friend loaned to me with all the necessary software. I put the cd in the cd drive, and the only thing the computer doesn't pick up is the sound drive. Though i installed the sound software on the cd and put it in the driver folder. Any ideas?

What operating system? Custom machine or a Dell/HP?
If your friend loaned the driver CD to you, maybe he has a different comp model and/or you have a card that needs a different driver.
Is it a built-in sound card or seperate? What is the make/model of the sound card or the motherboard? I will be happy to look up the drivers for you.
If you put the drivers in the driver folder after installing them off the CD, then go to Device Manager and click "Scan for Hardware Changes" icon on the top.
Or just right-click the sound driver and click "update driver."
When the wizard runs, choose the location of the sound driver.

You might need the UAA sound driver first, that was my problem when reinstalling all my drivers, the sound driver just wouldn't work and I ended up getting the Universal Audio Architecture driver and it finally ended up working, also make sure that the speakers are plugged into the right jack.
