Are you sure that you have the proper drivers?
Do you have a PCI Sound Card or built-in Audio on your motherboard?
The best source of drivers is the particular manufacturer's web site.
-
yeah! im sure this was my defaulted sound card it came with the computer and so did the driver disk.
i ve used the disc twice since i had to reinstall it twice but now its unable to detect it.
i might open up my computer...tell u later how it went...
its a PCI card
and i'll check the creative website for this error!
-
actually i dont wanna open the computer....dont have time unless i have to!
-
Most computers have Audio on an on-board chip. In general a PCI Sound Card would have been added by you.
If it actually is a PCI card and it is not detected you may need to open the case and re-seat it.
Another possibility is to go to the manufacturers website and look for updated drivers.
Did you reload SP2?
-
yeah i did because remember i had to well....erm... repair install windows and it made computer work again.....strangly....ill open up my computer and update u later
wait...........maybe it was installed in with the mother board m not sure...
but i did not put my current soubd card in...so can u possibly erm... please give me info on how i could fix the sound in this situation
