sound card

I have just moved to a brand new DELL Latitude E6520, UEFI-enabled. I was told that UEFI is the way to go, solves the 2TB storage limit, shortens boot time to fraction seconds, and more. Once configured Windows 7 Ultimate 64 on top, I have discovered that: - Boot time is same as with Legacy...

I am using a brand new Dell Latitude E6520. The notebook has double BIOS configurability with "Legacy" or "UEFI" mode. I have performed a first setup using UEFI, however the sound card is missing in the device manager list, without any "unknown device" appearing, as if the adapter is not...

So I've been googling for solutions in the past 4 days and found nothing. I have an SB Audigy LS, and it produces crackling/static noises whenever I play a video. Also, that video would end up freezing and I will have to close it using the task manager. I have an onboard audio but its Sony MPEG...

I recently bought a new rig, and things were just fine until a few days ago when I shut the PC down. When it restarted, Win7 said there was no sound card installed. The sound is integrated in the motherboard, and worked just fine an hour before. I tried the troubleshooter, searching for new...

Hey everyone, Just to be clear on what kind of motherboard I'm using and the onboard audio in said motherboard, here's the model number: GA-M57SLI-S4 (AMD - socket AM2) and the onboard audio is by Realtek. The mobo itself is a bit outdated I guess, at about 4-5 years now. I listen to a lot of...
