    nVidia FX5200 Personal Cinema

    Hi All,
    I have a little problem with my 128mb nVidia FX5200 Personal Cinema. It refuses to take an audio input in the respect that no audio is played and / or recorded when ever I watch / record TV or video through the break out box which attaches through my Personal Cinema card.
    I use to be able to copy peoples personal vidoes (weddings, christenings .. etc) to DVD, but now i can't


    Not so long ago I upgraded my PC from -
    Asrock Mobo (I forget the model number),
    3+ghz CPU,
    128mb nVidia FX5200 Personal Cinema,
    LG DVD RAM,
    512mb PC400 RAM,
    200gb HDD,
    5.1 PCI C-Media Sound Card

    Note: Orginally when I ran the Graphics card on my 1st build I had the same problem and it was solved by using the windows certified drivers

    To

    Computer Manufacturer: Custom
    Main Operating Systems: Windows XP Pro with SP2, SuSE 9.2
    CPU: AMD 64bit SKT 939 3.2+ Ghz (Clocked at 2.01Ghz)
    Motherboard: MSI K8N Neo2 Platinum SKT 939 Nforce3
    Hard Drive: 200 GIG 7200 rpm
    Memory: 2 GIG DDRam
    Cache: 2 MB
    Sound Card: On-baord 7.1 surround sound
    Video Card: NVIDIA Geforce FX 5200 Home Cinema Edition
    CD / DVD Drives: LG +/-/RAM Dual Layer DVD Burner & LG DVD-ROM


    Obviously I managed to resuse the Graphics, DVD RAM and the RAM, but I left the PCI C-Media Sound card out of the build as I have 7.1 onboard.

    I've tried upgrading the drivers via the nVidea site with no joy at all. I've tried using any and all drivers availible to me, but to no avail.

    Any one got any ideas.


    HELP!!!!!

    Did it work right after the new build? If not does it take an audio In or some different connection through the USB?

    No it failed as soon as I built the machine. I currently have no other way to get audio into may machine, as I have no USB or PCI card / devices to do so.

    Note: I was until recently having problems with Half Life 2 in the respect it was complaining that my graphics card firmware / drivers was out of date, so I re-built my current build, giving it a good clean out and I did a clean install of XP Pro. This eliminated the Half Life problem, but the audio input one still remains.
