Vista - Please someone help me... Im gonna go crazy!!!!!

thanks a lot Pooch,
sure i will let u know the results

I hope you get it working

hi pooch,

i read the 5-2 part (config the audio i/o). one of my problems is that in the realtek audio manager, the backpanel is not even active, so i cant config the jacks for speaker or mic or...

so..... no changes yet!

im living outside the kuala lumpur city, im a student here, and i bought my computer from inside the city... that's why it is hard for me to get help from my supplier! it's a little far from here... i have to pay a new speaker's price to get there with my computer case and come back home!

(just in case if u were wondering why im trying to get help here but not from my supplier... !!)

I dont have this option but I see from your panel that you do, so try this
No Sound From Front Audio Jack With Jack Sensing | LeBokov21.com
It might just get you front panel working

koohi, if disableing your Bios does not work, have you tried disableing the sound on your ATI card? Again, I can't help you more because I have never used ATI, let alone a Video Card with Audio Capabilities.

Although, it appears that what is happening is that your onboard audio is the one with the problems since the speakers are not working but then again, if you say that you don't have external speakers, why the need to plug someting to the back panel? Now, I am confused

hi guys

pooch, i tried that, it just activate the front panel in "realtek audio manager", but it doesnt help ! no sound from front panel !

the strange thing is, when they tested my mobo, its onboard sound was working great... i guess they are right, i should do something about my graphics card...
the second strange thing is that it seems that i am the only one who have this problem... im sure lots of people have X48 chipsets on their mobo and surely lots of them have ATI graphics card (or cards!!)

why me?

AstaLaVista, thanks for ur reply... i just know how to disable ATI's sound through device manager, and i did that, it didnt help, no difference. but if there is something like bios setup for VGA, maybe that would make a difference.
i didnt say i "have not" speakers, i have 2.1 "sonic gear-armageddon 5" speakers... sorry im not very good in talking English, maybe i wrote something in a wrong way...

thanks again

Try uninstalling the old drivers and installing these

hi koohi,

I think that I have found the answer, Go to Start, Control Panel, Uninstall a Program, and uninstall the realtek drivers the computer will want to do a newstart so let it.
Thats it!! windows will reinstall the driver without the Realtek program and your speakers should work.

Let me know.

Pooch

hi guys

pooch, i tried that... same result !

today i went to my supplier again and this time with my whole system... they checked it, and after one hour they said my mobo has a hardware problem...
so they take it for replacing and guess what?! they will give it back in 2 or 3 weeks !!!

thanks gigabyte !

u know, when u buy a mobo for about 280-290$ u dont expect it to be faulty, and IF it is faulty u dont expect that it would take about 2 or 3 weeks to be replaced! maybe if i was living in USA or EU they would change it in 1 hour or maybe less than an hour... what can i say?! just my bad luck !

but after this, i wont buy ANYTHING from gigabyte... that was my first and last time...

anyways... thanks pooch, i really appreciate ur help and thanks astaLaVista for ur help and ur replies.

and at at last: thanks gigabyte for wasting our time and my money! i dont know what should i do during this 2-3 weeks?!

tip of the day: dont buy anything from gigabyte...!
