    Just upgraded from 8.1 Pro to 10 Pro. Sound Card missing.


    Upgrade went nice except for Sound Blaster Audigy 2ZS sound card. It was working in 8.1. Tried to play an mp3 file in Windows 10 and no sound. Everything says drivers installed. The bar graph for the sound icon is jumping. But I'm being told its not detecting the sound card, even though its showing in device manager.

    I found a Audigy Support Pack 6.1 that says its compatible with Windows 10. If anyone knows anything about this driver, do I install over existing drivers or remove old drivers first?
