Hello i need some help been searching for 2 weeks now its driving me crazy that i have no sound I have made a fresh copy of windows xp home before and all i had to do was just let windows install the drivers Im running a older computer i think the company went bankrupt Northgate Xp home intel celeron cpu 2.4 ghz opened up the computer found a realtek sound card model #RTL8100B can someone please help im going nuts
Have you tried just going to windows update and finding the driver their. That should fix the problem by windows update.
try this link as that rtl8100b is a lan card not soundcard. http://www.realtek.com.tw/downloads...3&Level=4&Conn=3&DownTypeID=3&GetDown=false#1
look on the motherboard for the nane or numbers that identify it and paste it here so someone can tell you where to go to get the driver google wdm sound drivers and look for your driver gosh typo time this is just one site for a motherboard http://www.ecsusa.com/downloads/drivers_sound.html driverguide.com is helpfull tooo but you need to know your motherboard id
i tried the realtek website installed the wdm it did nothing it does say windows cannot find C\windows\system32\tools\delfolders.exe and during letting windows search for the best driver it says device cannot start code 10
What motherboard do you have. You may need to run that motherboards live update and install the drivers that way.
I have a syntax motherboard i also have the disk i just put a fresh copy of windows xp so i going to update the drivers when i went the website it said the the audio part was not from them so i opened it up and its from realtek and the numbers on the chip are RTL8100B 38157Q1 334E Dont know what these are for went to the website found the RTL8100B downloaded the driver and nothing happened This is driving me nuts i have put fresh copies before and windows found my audio but this time it just driving me nuts
Motherboard Name is SiS model # S651M device Path VGA VGA\SiS650&740 VXD VGA\AGP\SiS LAN LAN\REALTEK IDE IDE\SiS
Look for me this is still up in the air download a program called Everest Home Edition and then find out the name of your motherboard and then go and find the live update program that can update the drivers. If you have the disc for your motherboard already install it and then do a live update.
i went to the sis site heres what i got SiS Chipset Identification Online Utility Results: North Bridge Chipset: 651 South Bridge Chipset: 962/962L Graphics Processing Unit: SiS Real256 Graphics Related drivers: Categories DensityDevice Available for Download Graphics SiS Real256 Graphics AGP SiS Acceleration Graphic Port IDE SiS IDE Controller USB USB 1.1 N/A.

buy a sound card there ought to be a number on the motherboard it'sself that will tell you who actually made it. Onboard sound ought to be supported on the cd that came with the board check in bios that you have enabled it
