clidx Posted November 10, 2007 Share Posted November 10, 2007 Well i recently got x64 vista. I'm having problems with the front audio panel, the headphones aren't being recognised.this problem is on both the soundmax drivers and vista's own drivers, the ones that get installed by default for sound. nothing is detected on the front panel. it worked fine in xp, and still does (dual boot) but not in vista installing the soundmax drivers simply doesn't work, no playback or recording device is detected in the sound options after installing and rebooting. when i delete the device from device manager and scan for devices, the default drivers are installed and the headphones work in the back ports but still not the front i read somewhere on google that vista only supports hd audio, not ac97, but in the bios the setting is on hd audio and not ac97.any suggestions? thanks.

MAVERICKS CHOICE Posted November 11, 2007 Share Posted November 11, 2007 (edited) You should really post this stuff in device drivers sects of this board. Edited November 11, 2007 by MAVERICKS CHOICE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clidx Posted November 11, 2007 Author Share Posted November 11, 2007 Well i thought about where to post it, but i thought the vista section would be best since with both drivers (generic and soundmax) the headphones aren't detected when i plug them into the front jacks.It could go in both sections... maybe a moderator can help me out here?

midi2k6 Posted November 11, 2007 Share Posted November 11, 2007 Usually SoundMAX and RealTek Audio drivers both come with Mixer Applications, you can use automatic detects or manually setup from main mixer where you plug speakers/headfone into. Choose and select 4 Speakers for your output to have your sound card ENABLE device ports. Try that... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clidx Posted November 11, 2007 Author Share Posted November 11, 2007 (edited) ^ thanks for the response.the soundmax drivers didn't come with any other application other than the drivers. the xp version did come with a soundmax control panel but not vista x64, possible vista in general.

Mercury_22 Posted November 12, 2007 Share Posted November 12, 2007 Since the settings in bios are on hd audio , it's your front audio panel HD audio ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
