| Guest | Sound not working - in any way So I have a soundcard integrated into my motherboard, a Asus PK5, socket 775. I haven't been able to hear any sound from my new computer running Vista, and I've looked up all sorts of solutions including the ones in the Help and How-to. I've tried downloading drivers and using the ones on the CDs but neither works. Now I don't know what to do so I'm kinda sad now... |

| Guest | Re: Sound not working - in any way Hi, Do you see the sound card listed in Device Manager in the Sound branch? If not, you may need to enable it in the system BIOS. If it is, check in the control panel/sound/audio tab to make sure it is selected as the primary device. -- Best of Luck, Rick Rogers, aka "Nutcase" - Microsoft MVP http://mvp.support.microsoft.com/ Windows help - www.rickrogers.org My thoughts http://rick-mvp.blogspot.com "Gutted" <Gutted@xxxxxx> wrote in message news:4883F0D0-7006-4DA2-A8DB-BD90CDF47BEB@xxxxxx Quote: > So I have a soundcard integrated into my motherboard, a Asus PK5, socket > 775. > I haven't been able to hear any sound from my new computer running Vista, > and I've looked up all sorts of solutions including the ones in the Help > and > How-to. > I've tried downloading drivers and using the ones on the CDs but neither > works. > Now I don't know what to do so I'm kinda sad now... |

| Guest | Re: Sound not working - in any way Hi, First, do you see it listed in Device Manager? If so, there is no need to access the BIOS. The BIOS is accessed when the system is first powered on using a key or key combination as indicated on the screen by the line: "Press <key> to enter setup". Once in this area, you would check the peripherals to make sure that the line for the sound card/audio device is set to <enabled>, then exit saving changes (usually by hitting F10). -- Best of Luck, Rick Rogers, aka "Nutcase" - Microsoft MVP http://mvp.support.microsoft.com/ Windows help - www.rickrogers.org My thoughts http://rick-mvp.blogspot.com "Gutted" <Gutted@xxxxxx> wrote in message news:E57C42EE-2E68-47EA-819D-57DDF724D420@xxxxxx Quote: > I'm not especially good at this, how do I enable it in the system BIOS? > > "Rick Rogers" wrote: > Quote: >> Hi, >> >> Do you see the sound card listed in Device Manager in the Sound branch? >> If >> not, you may need to enable it in the system BIOS.
