I have just put together a computer system consisting of
An abit NF7 none S ver 2.0
A 1700+ TBred B
9500 pro
and Mushkin Value Ram 512megs worth.
I have installed windows xp home edition, i went through and updated
all of windows along with sp2, all went smoothly, all drivers updated,
I got the latest Nvidia system drivers and ATI video drivers.
Everything works great, except there is no sound!?? I dont understand
I've worked with computer for years and I know that the mute isnt on, I
checked both the nvidia system utilities and the windows speaker
volume, both are set to on. The nvidia utility has a configuration
process that you can go through, I set it up and during the test I hear
nothing from the speakers, I can start a song in winamp or media player
and see the equalizer bars bumping to the sound in both
winamp/mediaplayer/nvidia system utility programs. I went into bios
and I see that the audio is enabled, any ideas? Please help.
I did a google group search but I am only running into people with
issue using their 5 speaker setup. I only have a 2.1 logitech system.
I've checked all jacks, and my headphones, i'm just feeling lost, I
will try and update the bios and see if that will resolve it, but so
far i dont see it as an issue in the FAQ from abits site.

I notice you did not try to plug in a headset to see if the problem
may be the speakers?
I don't think a bios update will change anything but be caeful you get
the correct bios for version 2.0. You may want to go to
www.nvidia.com and get the latest platform drivers - unified drivers
5.10.
Good luck,
Al

I know it's probably too obvious but I have seen this several time - are you
using the rear (motherboard) audio sockets but have a front audio cable
connected?

I have tried a headset and they do not work either. The same speakers
work in my old computer, and I havent tried to connect the front panel
audio plugs. Grrrr, this is now happening on 2 boards, so i'm guessing
that its something i'm forgetting to install, that or the setup is
conflicting with each other, they are pretty much identical setups. >> Stay informed about: Abit NF7 ver 2.0 clean install but NO SOUND!! |

Go into the Control Panel, Sounds & Audio devices and see if it says
Nvidia(R)NForce(TM)Audio. Go through all the Tabs and make sure
everything there is set up properly.
Did you get a file called nForce_5.10_WinXP2K_WHQL_english.exe from
Nvidia and install it?

I was just at the Nvidia website and downloaded the nForce audio
driver 4.62 and installed it. It did not install properly and not
only did I not have sound and it screwed up a whole bunch of devices.
Check out your device manager for yellow exclamation marks! I
restored my system.
My guess is that the file(s) at Nvidia may have been corrupted.

This could be a really dumb question, does the board have jumpers between
pins 5 and 6 and pins 9 and 10 on jumper block FP102 at the back of the
board between PCI slots 2 and 3? You will get no sound if they are removed.
