[SOLVED] Can not run Sound blaster cinema 2

[steamnik]

Hello!

I just got my XMG laptop, the A523 model. It has a Sound Blaster cinema 2 card.

Installed Windows 10 64bit on it, installed all the drivers found on the official website.

But whenever I try and run the Sound blaster cinema 2- it says that there are no devices found.

What do I do?

I tried uninstalling the audio drivers, and reinstalling them, found a bunch of different Sound blaster drivers..but none of them work.

that laptop has many names, here is its actual maker - https://clevo-computer.com/en/support-drivers

and it has a creative link. Its also possible you need to update the realtek audio drivers to get it to see card,

Actually that is not true. My intel system uses a realtek onboard sound and sound blaster cinema. The board mfg ie asrock pays a lic fee to creative for the use of cinema. Same thing with some high end gigabyte boards; they use the realtek sound and dolby home theater.
