I don't do much overclocking, so I don't know why it would cause your sound to go out. Even though the drivers haven't passed MS's signature program, you should still be able to install them.

Specs: Asus Crosshair nForce 590 SLI,
AMD Athlon X2 6400+ w/ZeroTherm BTF90,

Check the BIOS for PCI Latency and set it to 64 or 128 and try again

Losing sound with overclocking on an older baord can require a bus latency change however it sounds to me like you are pushing things too far and without voltage increases to stabilize the board.
