Solve : Windows 98 sound? |
Answer» <html><body><p>My computer recently died (not sure what happened) and my dad reinstalled Windows 98 on it. However, the computer has no <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/sound-250993" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about SOUND">SOUND</a>. We're basically clueless - not sure how to tell if the problem is with the drivers or the sound card or what. I'd like to figure out what kind of drivers I <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/need-25476" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about NEED">NEED</a> and whether or not I have them. I'm not sure where to start - help, please?We've got you covered. Please post computer or motherboard make/model as well as sound card info. If <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/unsure-3248628" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about UNSURE">UNSURE</a>, download and run Everest (it's free) and see many important details about your machine. Then we will find the drivers. You WILL have sound again.<br/><br/><a href="http://www.majorgeeks.com/download4181.html">http://www.majorgeeks.com/download4181.html</a>Sorry this has taken so long - I hope someone can still help?<br/><br/>The computer is a Dell Dimension desktop XPS T450. The motherboard says Intel Seattle II SE440BX-2, and the sound card says Aureal Montego II Sound Card.It was real easy to find on the Dell web site:<br/><br/><a href="https://support.dell.com/support/downloads/download.aspx?c=us&l=en&s=gen&releaseid=R20109&SystemID=DIM_PNT_P03_XPS_T___&os=W98&osl=en&deviceid=1397&devlib=0&typecnt=1&vercnt=4&formatcnt=1&fileid=19946">http://support.dell.com/support/downloads/download.aspx?c=us&l=en&s=gen&releaseid=R20109&SystemID=DIM_PNT_P03_XPS_T___&os=W98&osl=en&deviceid=1397&devlib=0&typecnt=1&vercnt=4&formatcnt=1&fileid=19946</a>Thanks, but it still isn't working. I followed the instructions on the Dell site for <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/downloading-959080" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about DOWNLOADING">DOWNLOADING</a> it and unzipping it into the C:\dell\drivers\r20109 folder (which it did have to create). But after that, I'm not getting the pop-up window that's supposed to have installation instructions. The setup icon in the newly created folder doesn't do anything when I click, either...Is there a setup file inside the folder that was created? If so, open Control Panel>System>Device Manager and remove the card. It will be there with a yellow "!" by the side of it. Now run that setup file.<br/><br/>If there is no setup file, but a .inf file, right click on the card in Device Mnager and select "Update Driver". Point it to the folder where the files are stored.That works! Thanks very much.</p></body></html> | |
