Your vid card, are you using an DVI to HDMI adapter. Sound does not pass thru a DVI connection. Must use the onboard sound out as well as vid card out.

No - i have the actual HDMI slot in my laptop. No adapter for me. Its going straight from HDMI slot in my laptop to HDMI slot in my receiver.

It's the right one as your card is listed, but you'll need to use the modded inf which you download from there too. See the link in my signature on how to use it.

Let me get this straight. It has never worked right?

You have installed the correct drivers. Have you looked in device manager?

what does the sound tab in device manager say?

ken

Yes. It has never worked. I have installed many variations of new or old drivers. Right now im going to try the latest beta version driver.
In device manager - it says nothing, as in nothing it says everything is working fine.

I have video on the tv - of my laptop screen - though no sound...

Yea - still not working at all. No idea whats to do. Jst for anyone with a desktop --> look here: No HDMI Out option in Manage Sound Devices

I cant do that due to my laptop ... Rawr. Hope that helps anyone with a desktop. Gl all.
