After reformatting and installing Windows 7 and downloading the very latest drivers my sound not only worked, it was the best sound I have ever heard from my system. Windows 7 also found my MATROX TripleHead2Go and adjusted the display accordingly, plus doing the same for ARMA II, COD 4 Modern...

My problem is that I have 2.1 sound system and external subwoofer (car audio) hooked up to my computer, but subwoofer only plays when I test it on Windows speaker configuration. In Windows XP this setup worked fine, but in Win7 (build 7100, 32bit) it won't work. I'd think that because sound...

I have a DELL Vostro 1000 with the 32bit version of Windows 7 RC (Build 7100) installed. I too ran into the problem of the missing recording devices. The onboard sound chipset is the Sigmatel chipset. I found my solution by hunting through the many Vista and Windows 7 forums. I downloaded the...

So that's basically it. The sound IS for sure working in that the computer registers it and it's not muted, but it's just not getting to my headphones. I've checked my drivers several times and they seem to be updated. Is this just not supported or can I fix this problem? Also, I THINK the card...

I have an older SB Live! 5.1 card (model SB0060) and couldn't get the sound to work. Ran the driver in compatibility mode for WinXP SP3, and as admin, and it installed fine, when I played music the lvels were going up/down... but no sound from my speakers (and yes, everything connected just...

Just trying to figure out an issue I have with Windows 7. Is anyone else using a desktop USB Microphone that's using Windows 7's USB Audio Driver? I seem to be getting a "Thunderstorm" type sound whenever I use or activate the microphone.

I got Windows 7 build 7100 and everything works flawlessly except the sound. When I installed windows 7 everything worked fine I only installed video card drivers but sometimes when I play music it sounds a bit distorted and fuzzy at times. I tried this with multiple speakers and It never...

Greetings to all of you, I've used Windows 7 RC for 3 days now, and quite love it actually. But, from the moment I installed it, I had a weird issue. Whenever my computer (laptop/notebook (whatever you call it where you're from)) goes into sleep mode, (as it was configured by default after xx...

Hi all, I'm running on a crappy Asrock Dual SATA2 socket 939 mobo with AC'97 audio and I cannot find a driver that works. I've tried the latest vista and xp drivers as well as a few older ones. I've tried installing via .exe and by manually installing the drivers, but I get code 10 (the...

High Definition Audio not working. [SOLVED] I know there's already a thread about HDA not working, but this is slightly different. Basically, I have no sound on one machine, despite the fact the manufacturer listed is Microsoft. That's the only information given which I could identify it with...

I registered to post this fix -- this forum has been the most active about the issue of "no sound" on Windows 7, and while it didn't solve my issue it educated me to the widespread nature of the problem and kept me focused. This solution may also work for other than the ASUS PB5 series...

Hi. I am using the latest build I could get hold of for the 64 bit version of windows 7 and am having a little trouble getting my motherboards SATA ports to work with it. My motherboard is a Gigabyte GA-P35-DS3L rev 2.0 board with an overclocked Core2Duo E7200 cpu, Radeon 3870 and a Creative...

Conexant AC-97 laptop audio is screwing up. It sounds like a CD that skips CONSTANTLY. Sometimes the sound starts normally and then gradually starts to screw up. I've uninstalled and reinstalled the audio drivers. Does anyone have any ideas?
