464581 2006-06-19 21:47:00 On my; Asus 8V-MX mobo (Athlon 64), running WinXP Pro, I have on board sound - Realtek AC97 Audio for Via (R) Audio Controller.
The problem is the sound is tinny, sounds like people are speaking in a pipe or something - really awful for trying to use Skype or listen to the commentary from my wife's videoing.
I've tried every config I can think of and Googled as well, also changed speakers. But I still have the problem :confused: .
Would anyone have any suggestions please.

464583 2006-06-19 23:00:00 what drivers do you have installed?
are the windows sounds "tiny" ?
what movie/mp3 player are you useing and what codecs are you useing?

464585 2006-06-20 01:59:00 Thanks people; all fixed now. I downloaded new drivers (didn't think it would need them as computer quite new, but it just go's to show.....) and it works well now. :D jcr1 (893)
