Check Control Panel -> Sounds & Audio Devices, verify that the mute is not selected. Sorry, don't mean to make you appear stupid but this does happen!

cheers. have tried that and still crashes after downloading.

Well, that's strange. That is the download site for drivers for the Intel D845BG that this thread is about.

Or, do you have a different motherboard and just jumped in here with no info asking for help?

Uninstall the Easy Internet Keyboard from device manager and re-boot and see what happens.

ive tried that,all that happens is the comp finds "new software" wen it restarts itself and then it shows right back up again in the device manager...

 

[SokeSleezy]

Try this: http://members.driverguide.com/driver/detail.php?driverid=122377

This site I have never used - you can try the Avance drivers - I read some people had success with them:

REMOVE old drivers each time before trying the new ones.
