do i download the asus navigation wizard to obtain the driver for the audio?
ASUSTeK Computer Inc.-Support-
i used the link above to download the audio driver, but it says does not support the hardware or something like that, it is very frustrating
Is this the driver you tried?
Version 5.10.1.4151
You could always try the wizard to see if that helps
If you 1) Enter motherboard in the Select Product bit. 2) Selected socket 939 in select series bit 3) Selected A8V-VM in select model bit, Selected your Operating System, and then downloaded the Audio, I would have thought that all you would have to do is go to the file called Setup.exe and run it.
Unless of course you have a PCI, or PCI Express sound card installed, in which case you would have to find which card it was and download the driver for it.
Hi j4v3d,
If you go back to the Asus download link i gave you, after you have selected series, model etc, you will notice in the "Utilities" section, that there is a Microsoft Windows 2000/XP/2003 HD Audio Patch KB888111, I think you need to install this patch in order to be able to install the Audio driver bud.
j4v3d go with Hitecks advice and post the results if you can, i was gonna suggest everest but belarc gives more clear detail on one page that you can just copy and paste here for us to get a look at.
Jodav has said there is no support for windows 7 for your type of board so no point looking up ram and hard drive details.
You could always upgrade to windows Vista j4v3d, and to be honest i would give Windows 7 a year or so to get ironed out, just like Vista took a couple of years.
