Intergrated sound card on 867AS-H m/board not functioning
Posted: Mon Oct 21, 2002 6:50 pm
The integrated sound card on my 867AS-H m/board is not functioning.
I have downloaded and installed the AC'97 Drivers from http://www.jetway.com.tw/evisn/download ... ndex-1.htm. (alc_sound_full.zip) from the Jetway website and they are present in device manager with no errors or conflicts, but still I have no sound, any applications that try to use it are telling me that "no audio hardware is available, or the hardware is not responding".
In Sound and multimedia properties no devices are selectable in the AUDIO or VOICE tabs yet the devices are present in the DEVICES tab.
Also I've downloaded and updated the VIA 4 in 1 driver, also from http://www.jetway.com.tw/evisn/download ... ndex-1.htm.
My next move was to update the BIOS from V.867AS-H A01 to V.867AS-H A04 07-22-2002 but still no joy.
There are other updates available from Jetway for the 867AS (no "-H") MBoard which refer to a fix for audio problems, although these boards appear to be almost identical I am not confident the upgrades are compatible, as Jetway have not replied to my email.
Can I be confident the 867AS updates are compatible and if so do you think it will solve my problem?
MBoard: 867AS-H
Chipset: VIA VT8366/VT8233 KT-266
CPU: AMD Athlon 800MHz
SDRAM: PC100 128MB
VGA: NVIDA RIVA TNT 64/64pro (AGP)
Modem: PCtel HSP56 MicroModem
HDD: Fujitsu 30GB
OS: Windows ME
I would be grateful for any help.
Thanks
