Multimedia Audio Controller Fails To Install

Tech-Archive recommends: Fix windows errors by optimizing your registry

When using Add/New Hardware to install new audio driver if fails with: The
name is already in use as either a service name or a service display name.
The device properties dialogue says: The drivers for this device are not
installed (Code 28).

I am unable to find a service "Multimedia Audio Controller" (assuming this
is the name it is complaining about!). The driver is the SiS 7012 Audio
Driver. Fault started after Windows Update tried to install C-Media AC97
Audio Driver (since deleyed).

How do I find the "Duplicate Service" or overcome the problem.
