Unfortunately, I don't actually get the prompt for the
"NT default driver", even after uninstalling the Sound Blaster
drivers.  Instead, after the drivers have been reinstalled,
I get the message that the Stereo Enhancement hardware is new,
and NT is installing drivers for it.  That happens on each login.
When logging in as a user, not Administrator, I get an error message
about new hardware.

I think NT is finding the driver file on disk, and just using
that.  If I knew which driver file(s) corresponds to the Stereo
Enhancement feature, I could delete it, and perhaps it would install
correctly then.

Funny thing is, this is a reinstall of NT on this machine on a new
hard disk.  I didn't get this problem with the original install.
