BeerMonkey · Dec 15, 2004

I just formated as i posted earlier and everything works great except there is no sound...
When i got to control panel and then audio devices is tells me that there are none...
What should i do?

Uhhh...
Anyone?

you may need to install soundcard drivers, do you know what card you have or if its an onboard one your mobo makers site will have one for the board.

if you dont know the make of the sound card then either have a look at it for a name and model No. or use Everest to find out what it is.

another question did you also after re-install, install your chipset drivers?

I probably have on-board sound so what type would it be if my mobo is a MicroStar?
And, no i did not.

DavidGP · Dec 16, 2004

any idea what model MSI motherboard it is?

or do you have the driver disk that would have come with the mobo?

DavidGP · Dec 16, 2004

I will help you track the driver you need down, but I will need you to tell me which motherboard you have? as this will narrow what chipset drivers are needed and tell us what sound driver that mobo uses.

the main downloads page to MSI is here ( incase I have to go ) http://www.msi.com.tw/program/support/driver/dvr/spt_dvr_list.php?part=1

MS-6577 VER-4.1
That's my mobo.

In case you are in a rush and Halo is stuck in traffic, download and try the first one listed on this page. this

Halo, just wanted to help out...

Monkey, you could always check for newer drivers for your components on their manufacturer's website under 'support/drivers' section.

already downloaded that.
but still no sound...

Turcoloco · Dec 16, 2004

in the BIOS settings on the (possibly on PCI/PnP or Integrated Peripherals page) there should be a settings that will say 'AC97 Audio' or 'Onboard Audio' make sure it is set to enabled/on. I know simple stuff but making sure....I like to go Low-Tech before Hi-Tech...
