my sound ports on my motherboard are now well and truly stuffed , they have been tempremental for a while, but have given up the ghost now. i am upgrading my p.c soon so decieded not to get a new motherboard, i have bought a PCI sound card, put it in, and installed the drivers, but i still have no sound, im running my speakers through the sound card now, but i get no sound at all, im assuming that i need to disable my onboard sound, anyone know how to do this, iv checked device manager and the bios, i have a "ASRock P4VT8+" motherboard, iv tried for hours now and decided to see if any1 else knows any sudjestions would be great Thank you for your time, and thank you even more if you save some of mine
in the bios under advanced under peripheral configuration goto onboard ac97 audio, probably set to auto change to disable.
done that ... i have an unknown device PCI Simple Communications Controller iv tryed to install from cd but its not there, iv downloaded the software for my sound card but still no luck could this be my problem and does any1 know how to rectify it
Install the modem drivers first or remove the modem. It could be causing a conflict with the audio driver if its on the same irq as the modem. :>
