| 109295 | 2002-12-27 12:30:00 | I think... A completely non computer oriented friend gave me a PC they bought from an auction, with the task of cleaning it up & loading a whole lot of stuff they had bought for it for them, everything went smoothly. its an AMD 1.3ghz sytstem, running WinME, I dont know what the motherboard is (although if someone could guide me as to how I'd post that for you.) basically the problem is that there is no sound, & in the device manager there are little yellow question marks next to -PCI communication Device -PCI Multimedia Audio Device -USB Host To Host Bridge At boot up the boot screen right at the begining says "k7t Turbo MSI mainboard designed for AMD" is there a set of drivers like the VIA chipset drivers? I tried looking on Google, but didnt want to load anything that would screw it up. Appreciate any advice please |

| 109297 | 2002-12-27 21:44:00 | open the case and look on the motherboard for a model number . once you have the model number find the model and what chipset it uses . you can either use the manafactures drivers or the chipset makers (eg via) . while the case is open look at sound card for a model number and download the drivers for it . if its onboard the drivers will be included with the motherboard drivers . it might pay to boot into safe mode and check in device manager for any "ghost" entries . |
