What do you need to know before you see what sound card you have on your Windows 10 PC?

If the version of Windows and the drivers of the PC are up to date

When installing Windows, the same operating system adds basic drivers to our system, be it video, sound or even Bluetooth drivers . But you should ignore these drivers if you have the necessary hardware. That is, if you have a video card, it is recommended that you install the latest version offered by its manufacturers .

In the same way, you can update drivers from Windows , but you should know that it is better to use the manufacturers, since they have some extra features and configurations that the system defaults do not have, especially when using some soundround and various extensions.

How can you tell which sound card you have on your Windows 10 computer?

In the same operating system we can run or open several tools and options that show us the information of the sound card that we have installed in our computer. The main methods are the following:

From the control panel

When entering the control panel we can open the sound window, which tells us the name of our sound card. Learn how to do it by following these simple steps:

  1. Open the control panel either from the start button or using the search engine.
  2. Click on ‘Hardware and Sound’.
  3. Click on sound and that’s it you’ll be able to see the name of your sound card.

An important fact that you should know is that from the same sound window, you can also change the sound of the default Windows notifications, either to open folders, when inserting a USB, among other things.

Entering the device manager

It is very common to enter the device manager, to check if all the drivers are installed, or in order to correct some driver errors, but you should know that this function is perfect when obtaining information about the names of the drivers. In the case of the sound card, what you should do is the following:

  1. Press the start key and right click on the ‘This PC’ icon.
  2. Go into the properties.
  3. Click on device manager.
  4. Open the ‘Sound and video controllers and game controllers’ menu and voila, you will see the name of your sound card.

An important fact that you should know is that you can press the Windows + R key combination and in the run tool write the devmgmt.msc command , from this you enter the device manager directly.

From the CMD or by entering PowerShell

System symbols or PowerShell is the command console with which we can execute actions on our PC, without having to navigate through Windows. We can get all the information from our sound controller in the following way using one command:

  1. Open the CMD or PowerShell command console.
  2. Escribir el comando ‘Get-CimInstance win32_sounddevice | fl *’
  3. View the information of your sound card and that’s it.

Also if you have problems to see which is the sound card that your Windows 10 PC has , do not hesitate to consult Windows technical support, in order to obtain information on all the characteristics of your PC.
