I just finished installing Mandrake 8.0, but I can't get sound to work.

I'm using a SoundBlaster AWE64 sound card, which has worked just fine in 
every previous Mandrake version, but in 8.0 it won't. When I run sndconfig, 
it tells me that " No PnP or PCI sound cards were found in your system. 
Please select your card type from the following list." So then I pick it out, 
pick out the right detail stuff and all that, and then it says:

         The following error occurred running the modprobe program:       
                                                                          
         /lib/modules/2.4.3-20mdk/kernel/drivers/sound/sb.o.gz:           
         init_module: No such device                                      
         /lib/modules/2.4.3-20mdk/kernel/drivers/sound/sb.o.gz: insmod    
         /lib/modules/2.4.3-20mdk/kernel/drivers/sound/sb.o.gz failed     
         /lib/modules/2.4.3-20mdk/kernel/drivers/sound/sb.o.gz: insmod    
         sound-slot-0 failed  

And then I hit enter again and it jsut loops back to the "No PnP or 
PCI......" part. In all the past distributions it detected my card 
automatically and plays the sound sample with no problems. I also checked 
/lib/modules/2.4.3-20mdk/kernel/drivers/sound/sb.o.gz and that file is there. 

HardDrake recognizes the card, however when I click "Run Configuration Tool" 
it tells me that "modprobe: Can't locate module isa-pnp"

The sound card works just fine in Windows, and worked jsut fine in 7.2 before 
I installed 8.0. Does anyone have any idea what's wrong?
