vipejc Posted April 30, 2014 Share Posted April 30, 2014 (edited) Is it true HDMI over AGP can't allocate IRQ resources to video and sound, meaning if you use an AGP card and connect an HDTV to it, you'll get no sound?

vipejc Posted April 30, 2014 Author Share Posted April 30, 2014 (edited) This seems like a real and common problem from further research. This sucks. The video card manufacturers should at least mention this potential deal-breaker in their products' descriptions.

Guest Posted April 30, 2014 Share Posted April 30, 2014 I've never seen an AGP card with HDMI-out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tripredacus Posted May 1, 2014 Share Posted May 1, 2014 I've never seen an AGP card with HDMI-out. Me neither... until NOW! http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814161318 It was the first one I found. I think we need more information... 1. What video card? 2. What operating system? 3. What power supply (might be needed, not sure) 4. What model display? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Windows XP Home 32-bit SP3, FSU Group 480 W, and HP LA1751g. Edited May 3, 2014 by vipejc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
puntoMX Posted May 3, 2014 Share Posted May 3, 2014 It could've just been a defective card or some other incompatibility, but I just want to hear your thoughts.It should work but make sure XP is updated with the Universal Audio Architecture (UAA) High Definition Audio class driver. Now, forking out 60USD(+) for just a video card, why not make the step to a better system? Craiglist/ebay has tons of options for under 100USD that have HDMI out as well. That is my thought...
