bought a new sound card

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

someone told me I couldn't uninstall my present sound oh and by the way I
don't have a sound card in my computer right now it's on the motherboard but
anyways this computer whiz told me I couldn't uninstall my present sound with
windows running on my dell 8300 com . Something about Bios? Or just uninstall
sound and install my new sound card and don't worry about Bios or whatever.
I'd like to do this correctly but do it myself. Thx
