Full Version: C-Media AC97 Audio Problem
You're currently viewing a stripped down version of our content. View the full version with proper formatting.
I had to reformat my comp, Windows XP Pro SP3, and now am unable to access any sound. My onboard sound card is a C-Media AC97 Audio Device. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated. I used the drivers & utilities cd to reinstall the drivers and it says they're installed but there's still no sound

Thanx in advance for any help you can provide me...
