Formatt problem?

from Sins Forums
So i formatted my xp yesterday and weird thing is i use a sound card instead of my onboard and ive always had to install the sound drivers for my sound blaster. Thing is when i looked today it showed that my sound options had drivers but it isnt recognizing my card and sound options is greyed out in the control pannel. ALso installed sins and couldnt find the user.settings file or the location of my mini dumps im redownloading now and installing but i feel going to hae the same problem as before anyone got ideas on any of the problems?

This should probably be in off topic.

Is your BIOS set up to disable the on-board sound?

Yeah its always been that way ive never had it auto setup the crap but it could be that my sound card went bad in the past day or two was working fine before the formatt. Wasnt sure if this could affect why my game wont even boot just goes to that dam black screen. Was weird ive never in 5 years had the sound driver option greyed out or a pc not recognize my sound card.
