puntoMX Posted March 17, 2006 Share Posted March 17, 2006 There is some text on that BSoD, it is always helpfull to tell us (that is if you still have the BSoD ). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WeirdEars Posted March 17, 2006 Author Share Posted March 17, 2006 (edited) There is some text on that BSoD, it is always helpfull to tell us (that is if you still have the BSoD ).I can't remember the technical info, but the main screen said something like this:A problem has been detected and Windows has been shut down to prevent damageto your computer.If this is the first time you've seen this error screen,restart your computer. If this screen appears again, followthese steps:Check to make sure any new hardware or software is properly installed.If this is a new installation, ask your hardware or software manufacturerfor any Windows updates you might need.If problems continue, disable or remove any newly installed hardwareor software. Disable BIOS memory options such as caching or shadowing.If you need to use Safe Mode to remove or disable components, restartyour computer, press F8 to select Advanced Startup Options, and thenselect Safe Mode.Edit: No drivers for an 'Audio Multimedia Controller'...

Aegis Posted March 17, 2006 Share Posted March 17, 2006 Then obviously the driver isn't installed correctly. Don't expect any audio until that's corrected. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WeirdEars Posted March 18, 2006 Author Share Posted March 18, 2006 (edited) Then obviously the driver isn't installed correctly. Don't expect any audio until that's corrected.Now it's recognised the Audio Multimedia Controller as Realtek AC'97 Audio, and everything seems in tick, but it still doesn't work...I'm going to check the connections at the back of my subwoofer...EDIT: They're fine...The back of the PC is fine...

ripken204 Posted March 18, 2006 Share Posted March 18, 2006 Audio Multimedia Controller is your sound card and installing the realtek driver should have worked.. it does for meso your saying that there is nothing wrong in the device manager? do u have a pair of headphones just incase ur speakers are messed up ?

WeirdEars Posted March 19, 2006 Author Share Posted March 19, 2006 There was another driver that needed installing...It was called 'Realtek AC'97 Audio for VIA Audio Controller'...I have tried to install it, but it doesn't work...I'll try and install it off a disc I found...

ripken204 Posted March 19, 2006 Share Posted March 19, 2006 thats strange b/c the 'Realtek AC'97 Audio for VIA Audio Controller' is included in the realtek driver that i linked in my first post...go into device manager, right click 'Realtek AC'97 Audio for VIA Audio Controller' and click update driver, then click no not at this time, then advanced, then browse to the folder for the realtek driver and install it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
