  the volume icon at the taskbar disappeared... my speaker worked fine before i reformatted the comp...i tried control panel > add hardware and under the list of "installed hardware" , there is a exclamation mark at the hardwares:
  
  "multimedia audio controller" , "Universal Serial Bus(USB) controller" , "game port for creative" , "sound blaster 16"
  
  and when i click next..all of the devices above cannot start..
  
  also.. it says no audio devices under "sound and audio devices properties"

  Either you find your drivers at http://www.creative.com/ or you go Windows Update and update your copy of Windows.
  
  This process also install any updates for your hardware (if it's supported by MS).
  
  For USB controller, get your motherboard CD out and install all available drivers.
