    In device manager, if it shows under sound section that "ATI High Definition Audio Device" is not working well after a successful video card driver installation, you should update your motherboard bios. Also, disable any unused ports such as serial and/or parallel in the bios after update. (Or now if no update.)

    Also install audio driver for you board.

    Right click the speaker icon near the time in system tray. Choose playback devices. You can right click in there and set to show hidden devices.

    Right click on the one you want and choose to set it as default device.

    You did a bios update already? No, if you follow my instructions carefully, your system will be well as is.

    Apparently others with your motherboard are having the same problem - try a search, there might be a solution.
    I will look and report back if I find anything.

    New drivers releaed 2nd November get them here:
