resopalrabotnick Posted January 6, 2005 CID Share Posted January 6, 2005 yeah, ok. but what's wrong with getto? anyhow, kiss. (keep it simple, stupid.) rtfm or open the box or whatever to find out exactly who built your board. go to their site, google for it if necessary there they should offer the latest board drivers, bios updates etc. etc. including your sound driver. download what you need, install it, and crank up the speakers.

resopalrabotnick Posted January 6, 2005 CID Share Posted January 6, 2005 fine, if you want to try generic drivers, google for the title of your thread and wade through it. but i still recommend you try to get the 'ware from your manufacturer first. you wouldn't slap a honda engine in a ford, right?

resopalrabotnick Posted January 6, 2005 CID Share Posted January 6, 2005 i'd say half or more of the boards out there are available with ac97 sound. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
organ_shifter Posted January 6, 2005 CID Share Posted January 6, 2005 You can download a free program named "Everest Home Edition" which will detect everything on your system and offer download links from actual manufactures.

RTB Posted January 6, 2005 CID Share Posted January 6, 2005 There are far more programs that show you what's in your computer, such as AIDA32, Sisoft Sandra or Belarc Advisor. Your program looks very similiar to AIDA32, it might not be more different than the name alone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your program looks very similiar to AIDA32, it might not be more different than the name alone. AIDA32 couldn't keep it up, so Lavalys had to step it up a notch and take over. Their program is basically the same as AIDA32, but better. Sisoft Sandra is a great program also. I've use it before in the past. I just wanted to offer JustinOhioRR a quick fix.

resopalrabotnick Posted January 7, 2005 CID Share Posted January 7, 2005 ok justin. one more time. we all know you have ac'97 sound, many do. but there is slight differences in how exactly each board manufacturer lashes the damn thing into his setup, so you need to find out the manufacturer of your [glow=red,2,300]MAINBOARD[/glow] and its precise model and go to that site and doenload the drivers there. and this goes for anyone else and all other hardware too. the preferred source for any driver is the manufacturer. only if that fails should one try different drivers at random.

organ_shifter Posted January 7, 2005 CID Share Posted January 7, 2005 Field Value Audio Adapter Intel 82801AA I/O Controller Hub - AC'97 Audio Adapter Thtas what that EVEREST program tells me (Assuming that you have highlighted "Summary" on the left column under "Computer") Is the text blue? If so you can click on it and go straight to the site and get the drivers you need. If not, scroll up to the Motherboard section and observe the motherboard name. If it's listed in blue text, you can click on it and open up the vendor's website which, in turn, will allow you to follow the links to you motherboard's support page. What is the name of of your MB anyway? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MICROWAVE Posted January 7, 2005 CID Share Posted January 7, 2005 I have the correct driver if this is for 98se, I couldnt find anywhere what O.S. your running.......let me know :) Microwave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
