No Sound after Installing Windows 7
Hi I have just formatted my computer to re-install windows 7 on my computer. I am now suffering from the same difficulties from when I first upgraded from windows XP....I have no sound! I cant remember how I solved the problem last time.
I have GA-81915P Due Pro with integrated sound card.
(A)
There is a RED X next to Sound symbol (bottom right hand corner).
EXCLAMATION MARK in YELLOW triangle on audio device (in Device Manager).
Right click on audio device and go into Properties reveals:
General tab; Device cannot start (Code10)
Details tab (Hardware Ids); HDAUDIO\FUNC_01&VEN_434D&DEV_4980&SUBSYS_00010083&REV_0900
HDAUDIO\FUNC_01&VEN_434D&DEV_4980&SUBSYS_00010083
I got rid of it by installing the XP C-Media drivers from my motherboard CD manually:
Device Manager --> Sound, Video and Game Controllers --> HD Device (right click) --> Update driver software --> Browse Comp --> Let me Pick --> Have disk --> Browse --> Audio and then find .inf files
Now both RED X and Exclamation mark are gone and I can see the visualisation fluctuations appear when playing something....but No Sound???
[Note: Whilst it installs I can hear a thud coming from the speakers similar to when you start-up or shut-down the computer]
(B)
I then installed latest Relteck, C-Media and AC'97 software from there websites, but to no avail. I then thought that they might be conflicting with each other so therefore I installed them all separately but no luck.
(C)
I have right clicked on sound symbol --> Playback devices --> Put Speakers as default device....there is also Digital Output marked as ready.
(D)
I have gone into bios which only shows 2 sound related options:
1) Azalia codec (Auto/Disable)
2) Front Panel Type (AC97/High Definition)
I have changed the front panel type back and forth but no change.
PLEASE HELP ME!!!
