have a GA-8SIMLNF MOTHER BOARD and running win 2000 pro. I am having difficulties in installing audio driver.

I downloaded the driver from the gigabite site, but unable to install

PS: when i google the mobo, I saw this site and found interesting, I even found the link for the audio driver in this site ,which was not available in driverguide.com

but the link was broken

From what I could find your board seems to be "GA-8SIMLNF SiS651/692" board made for Packard Bell. So you should try Audio drivers from SiS (http://download.sis.com/).

Check out this thread (http://forums.pcper.com/showthread.php?t=261332) for other information regarding this.

Yes I do have hp machine and when I use searhing in sis it says it cannot connect to search daemon, It's happening since last week.

Can anyone provide me this driver pls?

You can't download this driver (http://download.sis.com/download_step1.php?act=Search&mode=2&category=3&subcategory=82&os=3&x=10&y=8)?

So what should I do? buy another sound card?

Can you download the drivers from the link I posted?
Yes/no/maybe :confused:
If so try those.
Obviously you can just disable the onboard sound in the BIOS and plug in a PCI sound card and use that instead. But if you were not unhappy with the sound you had and the onboard solutions CPU utilisation in comparison to PCI devices then I would try the SiS drivers first.

Yes but No

That means I can download but it doesn't install on windows 2000. It stuck in half way thru in installation. May be it doesn't like 2000

am i rite?
