Re: Realtek AC'97 Audio Driver/I have the problem too!

My system is a Dell Precision 670 work station. I first installed a 32 bit Win Pro as I did not know it was 64 bit. When I decided to repurpose it, It came with no OS so I ordered a Dell re-install Win Pro 64bit. That installed fine but never could get things to run quite right. So I went back with Win Pro 32 bit. Runs smoother but still cannot get the sound or the wifi to connect. The wifi is not even recognized. I need to try it in a back USB slot. But right now that is out as this thing is heavy and I am on the weak side. I have to use a wireless USB receiver as the slot for the internal is crowded out by the huge video card....on viewing the manual I downloaded from Dell ( I had the service tag number) it shows AC97, Sound Blaster emulation. On Dell there was NO audio drivers at all listed for this model. I searched and the only thing I could find was the Realtek AC97 driver. Had to get it straight from Realtek as every other download was corrupted. I can get it to unzip and when it goes to applies the drivers, it freezes up and I get the blue screen. I cannot access the bios to disable shadowing or caching. I have the latest bios and there were no chip utilities listed. I am running 4 gig of Ram and have a 1TB hard drive in it. I am about ready to physically boot it! Attached is my Speccy

 

In the future, should you post results from Speccy, please make sure to delete the Serial Number line in the Operating System area of the report to prevent an unscrupulous person from using it and messing with your activation/registration.

 

thank you. I didn't notice it till after I posted and I don't know how to take it down and edit it. :cry

 

Perhaps if you send a private message to DavidGP, a forum administrator, he can edit the attached Speccy report. There's no way you could.

Whenever we request that the Speccy report be attached, we always caution the person about the Serial number. Belarc Advisor also shows the Product Key near the end of the report. There is an app that shows the Product Key as a series of capital "X" and dashes but, unfortunately, I don't remember which one.
