Could you recheck the physical connections? The microphone connection you mentioned earlier sounds funny - check in case you have the speaker connection set in the microphone slot

 

[infidel]

Still nothing even though i removed the creative drivers. The physical connection should be no problem.
Have 2 of my speakers connected to the light green jack on my back panel. And that is all thats connected.

 

[Lomai]

Could you post snip of your playback devices? Right-click the volume icon in the system stray and select playback devices

This is when i have "Disable front panel detection" checked.

This is when i have Realtek audio manager as it is without cheking front panel detection.

Creative Drivers ??????

Ap

 

[infidel]

Ehhh not following? I have removed them if that is what you are asking? Or is that file not a driver?

 

[Lomai]

Try changing the settings in realtek audio manager to analog

Creative Drivers ??????

Ap

This got me stumped too :huh:

 

[infidel]

Is there a setting to change to analog? If so, where?
Shouldn't i have removed the creative entry? It was in registry.

 

[Lomai]

Could you also check if the speakers tab is enabled in the properties menu for your playback device?
Right click volume icon>Playback devices>Select Speakers

 

[Lomai]

Could you try disabling the digital output?Select disable on the Digital Output in playback devices

Alternatively, you could try this route:

Go to manage audio devices in control panel, check if the digital output is there, right click on it and choose "do not use this device"

 

[infidel]

Dont follow. Speakers tab? u mean properties on the speakers?

 

[Lomai]

Dont follow. Speakers tab? u mean properties on the speakers?

Sorry- yes properties after you have selected the speakers in playback device.
Sorry I can't up-link snips, have a really slow connection

 

[infidel]

All i can choose is disable. And i did and still no sound. I must ask though, should i try to fix it with front panel detection checked or not?

Uncheck front panel detection
and please re-post a snip of your realtek audio manager audio i/o tab

 

[infidel]

 

[Lomai]

The same snip you uploaded earlier with the realtek audio manager - not the playback devices one

 

[Aphelion]

This is when i have "Disable front panel detection" checked.

Ok, this looks good.

Select the speakers with a single left click, select the properties button, go to the Enhancements tab, Select Immediate mode (if it's not already) then select Disable All sound effects.

Next, go to the Recording Devices window, right click on the Mic and disable it.

Then let's see if it blows up! hehe...

Ap

p.s. You installed Creative Drivers for a Realtek sound card?? Drivers are not generic, they are hardware specific. You may have to do a clean reinstall again.

How many drivers did you install?

Oh, and if you have just the stereo speakers plugged in, select the speakers and then the "Configure Button" and set to stereo.

 

[Lomai]

Somehow the analog setting are still not enabled Could you select the device advance settings on that same snip and check what options are available there? Does it offer any analog settings?

Ap's on board now - thanks Ap. GTG- will be back online in about 30 mins. Hope things work out
