Loss of sound and no detection in device manager after win 10 64 bit re-install (also HDD had to be replaced ) all other devices seem to work ok.

I just had to replace hard drive as system crashed and I thought it would be easier than trying to unscramble NTFS file(s) corruption on original drive for right now.


I reinstalled win 10 64 bit using Media Creator tool, all went well however, could not install video drivers and system would "loose" video cards from Device Manager as well as monitors (solved this by installing drivers in safe mode!), System has 1-24" Viewsonic, 1-Ugee 2150 HD Graphics tablet monitor and a 49" Samsung QLED TV/monitor for graphics development


At this point all was going well, however no audio ( ASUS DX PCIe 7.1 sound card, always worked perfect with old drive in win 10), now, not even seen in Device Manager). When I tried to install audio driver windows said "no audio output device detected". My work around was to activate on-board sound, which works for now.


Tried an older Creative Labs card and win 10 drivers in an open PCI slot but same problem.


System is an ASUS P5Q-E MoBo, Xeon 5460 cpu ( at 4 GHz ) and 16gb DDR2 ram with 1-GTX 560 Ti and 1-GTX 750 Ti ( I know, old, but it works for me!)


I am stumped, any ideas as to where to start?
