After a reinstall of an eMachines e3014 the sound driver was no where to be seen. The hardware appeared to be ATI SB400. A quick google didnt return much for the e3104 but there were a few hits for the ATI SB400.
Namely a HP driver that worked with the eMachine. The driver can be found here
If the pc is newly installed double click the .exe and let it install, it will fail with an error. Once it has failed it will have created a folder on your C drive called
C:\swsetup\sp31635
Go in here and you will see the drivers,
Go to Start, right click my computer and select Manage
Click on Device manager
Locate your audio device with no driver
Right click and select update driver
Browse to the location above C:\swsetup\sp31635
It will then take some time and install the driver for the sound card.
Jobs done! Sound works fine!!
