    How is your internet connected? Do you have a NIC or Ethernet PCI card?

    If so try experimenting with slot order. First try the Sound card in the bottom PCI slot and the NIC or Ethernet in the top.

    Also please turn off your CAPS LOCK!

    make sur eyou are installing the right driver. I know that some places send out bundled drivers that cover more than one piece of multimedia hardware. try downloading a standalone driver for each one, its possible their is a conflict between the sound card and NIC
