I don't see how drivers and/or devices installed in Windows will have any
affect on a Linux install - changes to the bios will have an affect, but I
don't think software installed in Windows will affect anything. Maybe
someone else knows differently - or give it a try anyway, since I guess the
other possible suggested fixes for your sound card didn't work.
good luck,
