no sound : via ac'97 audio controller (wdm) + ga-7vkml mobo
got a chum with a problem.
Has a TIME (UK) PC - Time are nbow bust so there is no warranty/helpdesk etc etc etc. Several problems recently encountered and allegedly resolved BUT latest is there is no sound (it used to work a while ago). When I first looked the PC was complaining that there were no drivers installed for a "audio controller" so I deleted/uninstalled the yellow questioin mask in the hardware list in control panel - system and rebooted. At reboot I was prompted to install the drivers fro some found hardware (audio controller) and I let windows XP do its thing - and it allegedly installed via ac'97 audio controller(wdm). The sounds config bit of comtrol panel has this device set as the sound playback device... sound is not muted etc etc etc. In short everything LOOKS fine... but there is just NO sound! I have booted the PC from a knoppix (linux) CD and the sound works fine under that, so I can only thus summise that the hardware and bios etc is fine BUT the config or driver of whatever in XP is shafted/confused/totally misconfigured. Anybody any ideas? TIA! Ian |
