Mailpup.... Thanks!!!`

Hi Mailpup,

just wanted to say i too had a similar problem with my sound on my notebook. i followed all your instructions,downloaded the exe and all is good and working fine... finally i can watch my dvds on my laptop!
so yeah... thanks!
 
For on board audio (where you have no install CD for the motherboard) you need to inspect the board first. Find the model number, and also the makers name if shown (some makers don't always do this). The model number is usually near the CPU. For example, P4P800-MX. Google this number and you should find the makers name showing - in this case it is an ASUS board.
Do not follow links to any site that is not the makers own site - go only to the makers site.
Find links on that site for downloads or support or drivers or something like that - they are all different. Search or follow wizards to find your board and then select the audio driver(s) download - I always recommend you save the driver file rather than install from the remote site.
Follow instructions and this should work.
Note that some editions of the same board may have different audio chipsets - if in doubt download them all and try them one at a time...
If all else fails it is always possible that there is a fault or a conflict - I have sometimes had to fit a sound card to get round this.
 
when I start up my computer it says I dont have an audio multimedia controller installed.
and I have tried to update the device but it comes up asking for a disc to be used to install it.
could anyone link me to a place where I could download it from.
my pc specs are;

GBT___
System Model: AWRDACPI
BIOS Version: Award Software International, Inc. F8


Microsoft Windows XP Home Edition

Processor
AMD Athlon(tm) XP 2400+
Version: x86 Family 6 Model 8 Stepping 1
Speed: 2009 MHz


thankyou for taking the time to help me everyone.
it is greatly appreciated.
 
Use Everest Home Edition or SIW to find your motherboard's brand name and model number first. You can't get any help without that info.
 
I downloaded siw. thanks.
is this what you need to know?

Property Value
Manufacturer Gigabyte Technology Co., Ltd.
Model GA-7VT600
 
I downloaded it.
then ran it after it had finished downloading and it asked me to reset my computer.
so I did.
but I still have no sound.

do you any other ideas what could be wrong?
 
audio problems

I'm trying to digitalize old analog files from VCR, and audio tapes to my PC.
to do that, I bough a PCI TV Card that has audio, video, S-Video, TV antenna inputs.The card came with a driver... and I installed the whole thing, and it looks like the installation went OK.
Still, when I connected my VCR analog lines to the card (S-Video + Audio in) - using either Video maker or Pinnacle 10 software - I was only able to get the video part, but no audio at all.
Could someone tell me why?
I would really appreciate it
Thanks

Have you tried using the right and left audio channels. Somtimes only the right or left audio channels are live, not both
 
Hi,
I dont know lots about computers but I am having a problem with my Multimedia Audio Controller and i cant hear any sound. The Multimedia Audio Controller is marked with a question mark and when i try to update it, it seys that its cant find the nessessary software to install it.

I realise that you will need extra information. Please tell me what you need and where I am suppose to be able to find it.

Please someone help me...I miss my sound!!

Use Everest Home Edition or SIW to tell us your Motherboard's model number. That'd be the main information we need.

sorry - could not find any working references to your board on my local compaq site in UK - you should look at your local compaq site as it may be something only sold where you are.

Your laptop model did not show on my local list of products - where are you and please confirm the model - satellite - or whatever. It may be that there is no audio driver available for you OS upgrade.
 
I am in New Zealand (The laptop i assume to have been from Europe because Shift 3 was the pound symbol.)
And even if i can find an old driver?

I installed the realtek thing but the speakers screech before each sound or when opening a media player.



Toshiba
SA60-106

Model number: PSA60E-Few more digits to follow...
 
Hi and sorry about the rugby - for both our teams.
Drivers are device and usually OS specific with rare exceptions. For example some odd W2k drivers will work with XP but very few. If you cannot find an XP driver you could try W2k. A screech usually means a driver error.
I found your system spec on a French site and see that you have a Realtec ALC 250 audio system.
Go to http://www.realtek.com.tw/downloads...L)+/RTL8139D(L)/RTL8100(L)/RTL8130/RTL8139B(L)
and dowload the top driver from this ftp address
ftp://61.56.69.18/cn/nic/PCI_Install_5673_0820.zip
Remember to ininstall the old one before you install the new driver.
Best of luck.
 
yeah, but at least we made it further than aussie! So they can't boast about being better than us!

Just to let you know, this laptop has always run XP home i think, so sound drivers shouldn't be impossible to find.

What exactly did you want me to do? I ran the second link to download the driver, installed (don't know how to select which driver) but i ran the setup, installed and still no luck.
