Help-
I have just gotten my new comp built and running (Asus A8N-SLI see my profile for my system). But there is no sound coming out of it. When I try to play something with WinAmp, I get an error message: "Bad DirectSound Driver. Please install proper drivers or select another device in configuration. Error code: 88780078."
In BIOS, the onboard card is enabled. In control panel>sounds and audio>volume it says "no audio device."
under sounds and audio>audio it says "no playback devices."
under hardware>audio codecs" it says "this device is working properly."
I uninstalled the audio codecs, then downloaded the recent ac 97 audio codecs and installed them. plus control panel says they are working.
What can I do next?
I have not flashed the bios yet on this new mb. Would that possibly work?
