Can't detect the sound card... - Acer eMachines 520-2890 Notebook

try to fix the card in your neighbour system, if not detect replace the card, if detect replace your pci card

It needs a driver, install from the Asus software and driver disc, or download it from http://support.asus.com/

• you remove sound card from the computer.
• And again Insert in other slot.

Check the computer hope it will work. then no sound card detected. Replace the sound card or have a local tech take a look at the sound card.

Is your PC detecting the sound card...if not detecting check the card is fixed on mainboard slot properly, tighten the screw as well....If still not detecting try change to another slot...still not working replace with a new sound card and install the driver correctly...Thanks for being with Fixya...Good Luck

Match your sound card such that it must be compatible.with your motherboard.

Try to use a recent Fedora LiveCD to test the sound card. If sucessful install from the LIveCD and problem solved!

I lost My Sound Card CD and i want to download the same cd via the Internet how can i do it.

Need to check bios first for any on board sound auido devices that are enabled and disable it. Try to restart windows and see if detects. If it doesn't work then try to move the sound card to another slot on motherboard and restart computer.

Hi sallianne!

Let me help you with your concern.

STEP 1: Check if the sound card is being detected by clicking on the Start button, then select Run, and type in "devmgmt.msc".

STEP 2: Check the "Sound, Video and Game Controllers" if there are bangs on the devices or if the Sound Card is being detected.

STEP 3: We are trying to figure out if the sound card is being detected or not, because if its detected by your system and there are bangs you need to install the driver for your sound card. Or if its not detected, you might try unplugging the sound card and plugging it back to the computer but if that still doesnt work, you need to replace the sound card.

First of all when you installed the sound card and turned on your pc did your operating system detect the sound card. If it did then you would need to install the software driver. In some cases the operating system will have it built it and configure it on its own. If you installed the software and it you still got no sound, Go to device manager and find the sound card. If its there, right click and update driver. If is still does not do it then right click and remove driver. Restart your computer and it should detect your card and then reinstall software. now if it still does not work or detect your card then possibility bad sound card. Hope thats helpfull to you.
