| 666216 | 2008-05-05 08:31:00 | Might be an ECS mobo ? (www.ecs.com.tw(V1.0)&CategoryID=1&MenuID=82&LanID=0) Does it say, if its L4S8A2 version 1 or 2?? There maybe more than 1 version / revision of this mobo The above link for the drivers say C-Media CMI973x/9761A Audio Driver |

I helped a friend with his machine - same issue. Uninstalled, got latest drivers, rebooted - it didn't work. did it all over again, and it worked. |
