| Guest | Realtek AC 97 I just installed Rc1 and the the most recent beta drivers for my onboard ac97 sound card. You now get an option for line in for rear speakers and it works. When i test my speaker configuration for surround or quadrophonic all speakers work. Sad thing is thats the only place it works in is the speaker configuration. Media player doesnt work yet. |

When you go to places like control panel, do you still get a pop up saying your drivers are not compatible with Vista? |

| Guest | Re: Realtek AC 97 no i didn't get any message but later ms said a update was ready and when i looked it was a realtek driver update. the trick is to get the realtek control software for your motherboard in place then you can get the speakers working.

Well I have never had a problem with the sound not working, its just this pop up that comes up saying its not made for Vista. |

| Guest | Re: Realtek AC 97 when my vista install came up i checked the speakers and the center and fronts worked and the rears and the sub didn't. until i reloaded the realtek drivers from the asus web site. my friends older abit board did the same thing with his 5.1 setup. if your running 2.1 you wouldn't have noticed it because 2.1 works.

They are just basic built in laptop speakers. No dolby or stereo or anything I don't think. |

Beck: I get this RealTek popup on RC2 x86, but not x64. But the sounds works (at least at a basic level) in both cases. If you get this popup, then try this: Close the popup without checking the "Do not ask again" box, and then switch to classic view. The popup will come again (if it doesn't, then close Control panel and open it again). Close the popup again. On my machine Control panel is now frozen, and even task manager cannot get rid of the frozen window. Have to restart. If you open control panel (now in classic view) again, the popup will come again and control panel will freeze again if you just close the popup. The only way to use control panel now is to check the "Do not ask again" box on the popup. Too many things like this, IMHO. David Wilkinson |
