Sound error

[l3lueMage]

I am wondering why my sound wont work on build 5342.

I have a intel® 82801DB/DBM AC '97 Audio Controller, it says device working properly but I dont recieve any sound. Also when I goto the sound manager I get these(what are the shields by the sound thing):

[fizban2]

yeah,

this is an issue witht the drivers aren't written for the new sound driver stack, it works but doesn't output sound, i have the same issue on and machine that has ac 97.

Haha alright, sound not important atm..also I have one more question

I am administrator on this computer, and when I try compiling a C++ program, it says "I am not administrator and/or I am not part of the debugging user group"...or something, so I cannot debug/run my C++ programs...

I have no problems with my sound card working, have you tried to install the drivers for XP in compadibility mode.

Are you sure, because there is only one administartor for Vista they have a neutor admin group which is not the same as a administrator, I run a hack so I can use the real administrator in Vista.

Here is what I do

1:\ Start menu right click the Computer and select Manage

2:\ Expand the Local User And Groups

3:\ Select Users

4:\ Optional but it what I do Rename the Administator to a another Name

5:\ Run the below reg entry this allows the Renamed Administrator to show

on the log on screen

Rename_Admin.reg

Have you got these services running, Windows Audio, Windows Audio Endpoint Builder

If so and it still not working, try my hack to use the real administator account then try

and install the drivers again.

[l3lueMage]

I have them running, and I tried uninstalling/reinstalling on the real administrator account...Do you have a different driver? mine says all up to date but I dunno if it is..

Mine just installs that way, from the install. What build of Vista are you using, I am using the latest from Microsoft, Vista 5342. It could be a bad build that you down loaded, I get mine from the connect site as I am in the beta.

Go to the site manufacture of your sound card down load the latest drivers, then try to install them in compadibility mode. Does your device manager look like this
