I installed the drivers for the onboard audio on my ic7g. When I open the ic7g's audio properties icon in the system tray and run the speaker test, it works. But when I'm trying to play video in wmp 10 and various other video players, I dont get any sound. Any suggestions?

 

why would you use onboard audio in the first place?

 

Cause I have cheap speakers and no sound card at the moment.

 

onboard sound is fine for most things.

I'd check in the sound properties in the control panel... I think there's an option to set it to use any avaliable device instead of specifying one. sometimes that helps because the sound card makes other virtual devices that aren't listed, so it'll just goto the next virtual sound card channel when it can

 

Could this be the culprit? I think it is. How would I troubleshoot that :thinking:??

 

install the driver for it:doh:

 

he said he installed the drivers.. try looking for an updated one?

 

:doh: i meant the driver for that particular service

 

ah. well doesnt the exclamation point mean its installed but not working properly? i forget.

 

possibly, but not always
