Legacy Audio Drivers

If you are experiencing trouble with your legacy audio drivers, you've come to the right place. Microsoft's helpful technical support will tell you that a simple uninstall and reinstall will resolve the problem, but I'm here to tell you that’s not very helpful after all. While it may work in some instances, the problem likely lies deeper.
Your legacy audio driver is essential to you if you plan on listening to any sound at all on your computer - from websites, from movies, from games or from music CDs. When this driver, or translator, is corrupted or missing files, you will experience no sound from your speakers. The driver acts as a translator between your device - your legacy sound card in this case - and the motherboard on your PC. Without it, the two cannot interact because, essentially, they do not speak the same language.
