The audio does not work at all now. The drivers in the audio control panel look fine but no sound. The correct drivers are selected in each sound driver screen. When checking the windows default sounds and trying to play them there is an error message where they say the files might be corrupt and no sounds play. However, when windows starts up, the infamous windows startup sound plays. Following the drivers installation and finishing the bootup sequence all sounds stop working.
The onboard sound chipset is Sigma Tel where I have downloaded the latest driver version from dell with no success. I don't want to look at Sigma Tel's website since this is a dell product.
No problems identified in the device manager window - not sure what the even viewer is or where it is located. Enabled the hidden products with no problems.

I removed the ati software by going into the program files and finding the uninstall utility program. I ran the program and then removed the separate programs from the add or remove programs control panel. There is no dao entry or file.
This pcba was the raedeon hd2600 series where I downloaded the newest drivers and previously installed them with no success. I have removed the new pcba and returned it to the store for a refund and reinstalled the x600 ati driver pcba and it's software drivers.
Another Thought:
I did find a microsoft hi-definition audio drivers - kb888111 and kb835221 installed. Wondering if these might be causing some problems? Also, wondering if removing the standard audio drivers in the device manager screen might help? |
