U have just to download then run it before running Conexant.

If u have lost the CD of ur MoBo download ur sound card driver on the support site of the maker of ur computer. Or of ur MoBo if ur computer is a no-brand one.
Then run it.

Xp doesn't recognize any sound devce. A driver is necessary.
Vista recognizes sound devices. (But not all)

You have to install first sp32646.exe (Microsoft Universal Sound driver) then install the sp28481.exe (Conexant CX20468-31 AC97 Audio driver) . I solved it that way.
