Here's a link to MSI's automatic update:

MSI Global ? Computer, Laptop, Notebook, Desktop, Mainboard, Graphics and more

You could also try these drivers:

i have just taken a look at MSI's website and thats a pretty old mobo, I had to delve into the archives to find it and it doesn't look good in getting a driver to work for your on-board audio.... I am going to suggest to that you might want to think about getting an PCI addin sound card something along the lines of an Creative SoundBlaster Audigy 2 or better do not get a sondblaster live or audigy 1 these cards are not supported under windows 7 and a buggar to install and get going via third party drivers
