Any idea what i'd need to search for to get it working or what i'd need to download

Find your motherboard model and get its drivers from the manufacturer the sound drivers should be there as well.

Ok i got my sound working but if i try and use my mic in ventrilo or teamspeak or even sound recorder i have trouble

ventrilo- Failed to open sound input device. Another program might have it open already


teamspeak- shows i dont have a mic

sound recorder- Your audio hardware cannot record into files like the current file. To record. create a new document
