Can't get sound to work

Also, how do I access my sound drivers to check its settings?

Run -- DxDiag

It can give you potential info about your sound settings. I think that it reports problems and drivers also.

Go to Sound. There could be more than one Sound, look the speakers you have. There will be a part that tells you the controllers, which tells you the .sys file and the version. Copy and paste.

Hmm. Not seeing any mention of a controller. Is there anything else it might be called, or am I just missing something right in front of me?

Such Echo/Reverb etc. effects are generally modified through the control panel of your sound card found in Control Panel -you may have a system tray icon for your sound card application as well. Generally placed under Environment or Effects etc. tab, you should disable or select something like None to remove such annoying effect. I wonder if there is anyone who likes those.

Maybe some good system of audio can put those options to work.

Those are generally made so as to let people hear something different from their tiny speakers.

When you have those big ones with with a quality set of speakers, such effects are ridicule to one.
