Re: The onboard sound driver on the cd provided will not...
I recommend you download the current drivers from the website. You might also reset the bios settings, either by resetting in the bios by jumper or in the bios setup to default.

You have to refresh your system by deleting the old sound card driver in the control panel or add/remove programs . Then restart the pc to detect the old onboard sound card driver. Then install the onboard sound card driver using the supported motherboard cd driver.
-to just boot up without any sound device, remove any soundcards from the PCI- slots, disable the onboard sound device in the BIOS! It looks like you are facing IRQ conflicts, your computer cannot handle all the hardware devices installed. to solve this, in BIOS set IRQ management so that the BIOS handles the PCI devices(set everything to auto), disable the plug'n'play-operation system option to prevent windows from doing the same thing again( it'll then just take the IRQ information provided by the BIOS) now enable the onboard sound device and make sure you have all the drivers for the onboard devices(sound, LAN-card etc.) fitting your operation system on CD or thumb-drive, boot up and install the drivers. Restart and by chance everthing isO.K. by now.
if not, please come back with more information on the sound device(onboard or not) and the winversion, so we perhaps can find you the appropriate driver(if you don't have it on the CD you purchased together with the mainboard..?)
Hi !
ur new version of driver might not support ur old hardware. So there will be a conflict between the two. In some cases ur installation migth be complete but won't work well. I recommend auto update online instead of installing new one manualy.
when installing the drivers check that the drivers are related to that hardware only. some drivers from other sources will install but will not work correctly.
if you have installed drivers from the original cd that came with your motherboard(if onboard sound) or the sound card (pci card). then let windows search for the driver in the cd. you don't select the particular driver.
first uninstall the drivers you currently have and then reboot the sys and wait for the system to find for the new hardware device. then choose the option -> search in the removable media and then insert the cd.
if this doesn't solve the problem. check in the bios settings, advanced option that onboard sound card is on for onboard sound and this is off for internal sound card.
if your motherboard has Realtek sound card then go the site and download the new driver. check the correct ALC codec. if you are using internal sound card like creative. then download the updated driver.
and also check in the control panel of windows of the "sounds and audio devices properties"..,
in the first tab your sound card name should be visible and in the third tab in default device your audio card name should be specified.
Try downloadign the driver and installing it again. PCChips is a rather cheep line of motherboard as I hve dealing with them. If that does not work consider installing a PCI sound card like soundblaster. I have had to do that a few times rather than replace a board.
The PCChips website reall does exist.See below: Good luck
SOMETIME THE CHIPSET IS DIFFERENT...OR THE ONBOARD AUDIO HAS GONE UNSERVICEABLE...TRY PCI AD ON CADT FOR MULTIMEDIA SUPPORT AND INSTALL DRIVER FOR THAT WITH THE CD PROVIDED WITH THAT
