Re: Howto make a AC97 (VIA VT82C686A) working?
by Helen Wright on Saturday January 25, @06:31AM
Hi there I have the same problem with my sound card. I reformatted my system over Christmas (Win98SE) and now my sound card won't work. Have downloaded the relevant driver and still nothing.

There wasn't anything for my soudn card on the CD that came with the computer, have looked several times!!

My PC says that its all working properly and theres no problem, but when I got to Control Panel, Multimedia, I can't choose an audio device and so can't hear anything.

Help me - I miss my sound!

Thanks,
Helen

    You know ,i have exactly the some problem, i was reinstal my win98SE and my PCI multimedia audio device is disable. I was check in multimedia device --> no sound, and i was downloaded from internet VIA sound driver ,check my BIOS made enable onchip sound etc. still no sound on my comp. when I'm trying instaling VIA AC97 computer said that i need change first in BIOS the question is where?? no options there like that.

    Had the same problem. I went to to System in the Control Panel and deleted AC97 driver. Then I went back and had the system autodetect. It asked for the driver, rebooted, and then everything started working. Hope this helps. I had tried everything up to that point.

      Can you tell me exactly how you got into the wizard that has the system autodetect for drivers?
      Explaining my problem: I selected to uninstall the driver then my puter froze up! The driver is gone & I have no idea how to get into the driver search wizard now & my Avance AC97 sound Driver's gone! HELP
