Can I delete media control devices safely?

Have a midi problem with a new audio card I purchased - it does not

work with my midi piano.

 

I recently discovered (after testing my midi piano on another

computer) that I must have a conflict or something with my new midi

card & winxp.

 

* I tested my midi piano works on another older computer, so I

eliminated both the cable and the piano as a suspect in this problem.

 

I am trying to clear/uninstall all of the Creative SoundBlaster audio

drivers and files (that came with the new sound card) and the SoundMax

files/drivers (that came with the onboard audio motherboard) so I can

start fresh with this new audio card

 

** Please note that the onboard audio device is NOW turned OFF in the

bios.

 

I really want to be sure I get rid of all the drivers, entries etc BUT

should I go into the Device Manager and delete the files that are

associated with media control devices :

In the MEDIA DEVICE CONTROL PROPERTIES - their is a bunch of .dll -

MCIwave.dll , MCIseq.dll etc

Can I safetly delete those?

 

Should I delete the entire folder from the :

System > Devices Manager > Hardware > Sound Video and Game controller

> ** MEDIA CONTROL DEVICES

 

If there is something else I should do to clear all the audio midi

entries, please let me know that as well.

 

I hope this is clear.

 

Thanks
