Solve : Sound is barely heard, Win 98, New card? |
|
Answer» I installed a new sound card, disabled the onboard one in my BIOS, I've tried all adjustments and nothing works. :-? Can anyone help me to figure this out? I have sound, but it really low. Well with the lack of information you provided you should probably check in Control Panel/Sounds and Multimedia and look around. Also make sure your speakers are plugged into the correct port. I have a Ernest Home Report on the system and the sound and I've check everything. Is there a utility for diagnostics to do a system check for integrated audio. :-? What's an Ernest Home Report ? ? If it's an Everest Home report post it here and we'll have a lookseeReport is attached, it is Everest..can't SPELL You might wat to try that again, Your Report Did not attachHere is info: CPU Type Intel Pentium III, 500 MHz (5 x 100) Motherboard Name Intel Warm Springs WS440BX (1 ISA, 5 PCI, 1 AGP, 3 DIMM) Motherboard ID 4W4SB0X0.15A.0013.P08.9904221542 Motherboard Name Intel Warm Springs WS440BX Motherboard Chipset Intel 82440BX System Memory 256 MB (SDRAM) BIOS Type Phoenix (04/22/99) Multimedia: Audio Adapter Aureal Vortex (AU8810) Sound Accelerator System Properties: Manufacturer Gateway Serial Number 0014604544 Universal Unique ID 00492051-D31DB211-8000E2D3-E10DE713 Motherboard Properties: Manufacturer GATEWAY Product Tabor2 WS440BX Version Tabor2 4000502-210 Serial Number B Processor Properties: Manufacturer Intel Corporation Version Intel Pentium(R) III Processor External Clock 100 MHz Maximum Clock 500 MHz Current Clock 500 MHz Type Central Processor Voltage 2.0 V Status Enabled Upgrade Slot 1 Socket Designation J4J1, CPU Windows Audio _______________________________________ _ Device Identifier Device Description aux.0 0000 0000 midi-in.0 00B5 0037 Vortex AU8810 MPU-401 midi-out.0 00B5 0036 Vortex AU8810 MPU-401 midi-out.1 00B5 0031 Vortex AU8810 Wavetable mixer.0 00B5 0034 Aureal Vortex AU8810 Mixer wave-in.0 00B5 0033 Aureal Vortex AU8810 Record wave-in.1 0001 005A Game Compatible Device wave-in.2 0001 0050 Voice Modem Wave #00 Line wave-out.0 00B5 0032 Aureal Vortex AU8810 Playback wave-out.1 0001 0059 Game Compatible Device wave-out.2 0001 0051 Voice Modem Wave #00 Line PCI / PnP Audio _______________________________________ _ Device Description Type Aureal Vortex (AU8810) Sound Accelerator PCI [ Primary Sound Driver ] DirectSound Device Properties: Device Description Primary Sound Driver Driver Module Primary Buffers 1 Min / Max Secondary Buffers Sample Rate 6000 / 100000 Hz Primary Buffers Sound Formats 8-bit, 16-bit, Mono, STEREO Secondary Buffers Sound Formats 8-bit, 16-bit, Mono, Stereo Total / Free Sound Buffers 1 / 0 Total / Free Static Sound Buffers 1 / 0 Total / Free Streaming Sound Buffers 1 / 0 Total / Free 3D Sound Buffers 8 / 8 Total / Free 3D Static Sound Buffers 8 / 8 Total / Free 3D Streaming Sound Buffers 8 / 8 DirectSound Device Features: CERTIFIED Driver No Emulated Device No Precise Sample Rate Supported DirectSound3D Not Supported Creative EAX 1.0 Not Supported Creative EAX 2.0 Not Supported Creative EAX 3.0 Not Supported [ Aureal - Vortex DirectSound Driver ] DirectSound Device Properties: Device Description Aureal - Vortex DirectSound Driver Driver Module AU10WAVE.VXD Primary Buffers 1 Min / Max Secondary Buffers Sample Rate 6000 / 100000 Hz Primary Buffers Sound Formats 8-bit, 16-bit, Mono, Stereo Secondary Buffers Sound Formats 8-bit, 16-bit, Mono, Stereo Total / Free Sound Buffers 1 / 0 Total / Free Static Sound Buffers 1 / 0 Total / Free Streaming Sound Buffers 1 / 0 Total / Free 3D Sound Buffers 8 / 8 Total / Free 3D Static Sound Buffers 8 / 8 Total / Free 3D Streaming Sound Buffers 8 / 8 DirectSound Device Features: Certified Driver No Emulated Device No Precise Sample Rate Supported DirectSound3D Not Supported Creative EAX 1.0 Not Supported Creative EAX 2.0 Not Supported Creative EAX 3.0 Not Supported [ Game Compatible Device (emulated) ] DirectSound Device Properties: Device Description Game Compatible Device (emulated) Driver Module WaveOut 1 Primary Buffers 0 Min / Max Secondary Buffers Sample Rate 0 / 0 Hz Primary Buffers Sound Formats None Secondary Buffers Sound Formats None Total / Free Sound Buffers 0 / 0 Total / Free Static Sound Buffers 0 / 0 Total / Free Streaming Sound Buffers 0 / 0 Total / Free 3D Sound Buffers 0 / 0 Total / Free 3D Static Sound Buffers 0 / 0 Total / Free 3D Streaming Sound Buffers 0 / 0 DirectSound Device Features: Certified Driver No Emulated Device No Precise Sample Rate Not Supported DirectSound3D Not Supported Creative EAX 1.0 Not Supported Creative EAX 2.0 Not Supported Creative EAX 3.0 Not Supported [ Voice Modem Wave #00 Line (emulated) ] DirectSound Device Properties: Device Description Voice Modem Wave #00 Line (emulated) Driver Module WaveOut 2 Primary Buffers 0 Min / Max Secondary Buffers Sample Rate 0 / 0 Hz Primary Buffers Sound Formats None Secondary Buffers Sound Formats None Total / Free Sound Buffers 0 / 0 Total / Free Static Sound Buffers 0 / 0 Total / Free Streaming Sound Buffers 0 / 0 Total / Free 3D Sound Buffers 0 / 0 Total / Free 3D Static Sound Buffers 0 / 0 Total / Free 3D Streaming Sound Buffers 0 / 0 Try installing the sound card in another slot...and double-check that you in fact do have the onboard audio dis-abled.I have a Fealing that you have either not installed the Correct Drivers, or the one you Installed , simply dont work your New Sound card is a "Aureal - Vortex"? i have not heard of this BRAND, but heres a link to the Lastest Drivers for it , i sugest you try these http://www.voodoofiles.com/1397 This site gives me drivers for the 8830, but I have the 8810 and can't find drivers for this. Do you think the 8830 will work for the 8810?Quote This site gives me drivers for the 8830, but I have the 8810 and can't find drivers for this. Do you think the 8830 will work for the 8810? 50/50 chance... Go grab a new SoundBlaster card, inexpensive and they run on practically any machine/OS. patio. 8-)I'll try it ...thanks |
