Unable to get any sound

[A Casual Fitz]

I just reformatted Windows (which I've done with no problem many times) and for some reason I can't get any audio to work even with drivers installed. This is both with my onboard sound card and my Audigy 2 ZS. Anyone know what it might be?

Do they show up as the correct audio devices under sound and audio devices in control panel?

The Audigy 2 ZS shows up, but the onboard one doesn't.

Typically windows only likes one sound "card" at a time. Try disabling your onboard in the bios. Also, go into the windows sound properties and verify that the playback volume settings are not muted and that they are raised to 100%

I don't understand, I had both going fine until I reformatted...since my OP, I reformatted yet again and am only trying to get the onboard sound to work with no luck whatsoever. I'm stumped.
