Need help: audio not working!!

agway46 · 07-02-2008, 06:54 AM

Hello,

I am having some computer problems and I came to the one source I know I can count on: you guys.

Heres the problem: I have just gotten a virus (long story, dont feel like explaining it). Anyway, the only way to get rid of it was to reformat my harddrive, which in turn wiped out all my drivers. I have reinstalled everything i could, but I am having trouble with my audio drivers. When i first boot my computer up, it said it found "Soundmax Digital Audio". But when I try to install their driver, i get an error saying "driver not found" (thats the idea, i dont have the driver). I have also tried to install two separate PCI sound boards, neither of which fixed the problem. The first worked for about a day, then crapped out on me.

Here are my specs:

Sony Vaio desktop running Windows XP SP2
Intel Pentium dual processors, each at 2.80GHz, Foxconn p450 VX mobo with integrated audio (that's what i would like it fix if possible, then second priority is the pci sound cards)

if you need any more information please ask

Thanks in advance,
Agway46

you can try to google the sounds card's name, go to the web site & download the latest drivers there.

I can't find a P450 VX motherboard in Foxconns product lists. Are you sure it's correct?

Also can you provide the model number for your Sony laptop?
