If you need to load kernel modules during startup, look in /etc/rc.d/rc.modules for it first and uncomment the line there, or add one.
If you need to run other commands during boot-up, put them in /etc/rc.d/rc.local.
Should be an example or two there.
rc.local is the last thing that runs before login, so anything you do there is less likely to interfere with normal boot-up.

okay, i got the sound to work, one of the files that goes with all the other driver file files was put into a folder in the sound driver folder. I moved it into the sound driver folder and it works.
