Have you been trying to mod the game or messing with the files? That might be the source of some of your troubles. If the answer is yes you might try a fresh install if you somehow messed things up. BTW, your drivers, etc. look fine, but without you posting a specific problem to address the only advice I would give you is to try running the game in the same resolution as your desktop.
SoundPackager - Customize the Windows sound scheme
