XP MCE comes with DX9.0c installed, as it has the WinXP SP2 included in it....

hi ,

downloaded the latest drivers for the MOBO...Audio from Intel.com

still does not work.

the hardware is not getting installed.

It does not even ask for installation.

I dunno wat to do. sitting here without audio.

when i go to sound properties. it says...no hardware found.

Media Center has SP1 installed if I am not wrong.

thanks guys...

1. You sure you're using the right driver's

2. Is the audio enabled in the BIOS.

Ya man...I have installed other OSs before like XP, Server 2003, and 2000 wthout problems..

but its media center thats creating problems...

the service is also running(windows audio) fine

[Pantner]

Media Center is just a program that runs in the Windows XP Pro environment...except for a few extra services...

if you go into device manager, does it show up AT ALL???

Better off, if the pc isn't sealed, have a look at the sound chipset and google around for its driver. also make sure that the audio codec is enabled (sometimes it only lets you chose "auto") in the bios. good luck and hope this helps.
