I have a HTPC setup. PC includes an ASUS MB with on-board video and audio, including options for either separated analog 7.1 audio out or HDMI out (among other output options). Current setup routes Audio and Video via HDMI to Pioneer VSX-1020 A/V receiver, and routes video from there to HDTV via another HDMI cable. OS is Win7 Ultimate x64, w/SP1.
Exact model for mb is here: ASUS M4A88TD-V EVO/USB3 AM3
When I play audio files, the receiver can fake the signal into all 5 channels (I don't have a sub, so the .1 is not relevant here), so there's no issue of the receiver not accessing the available speakers.
The main issue is this: When I look into the Sound Control Panel, under Playback Devices, the active/default device is ATI HDMI Output. Also listed are Speakers (not plugged in), Realtek Digital Output and Realtek Digitial Output (Optical). I do not have any analog cables plugged in, nor do I have an S/PDIF (optical/coax) connected. The HDMI works, but only gives me the option of Stereo (2ch). When I go to the Configure screen for the ATI HDMI Output, I see a list of Audio Channels, but that list ONLY contains Stereo.
I am trying to install windows 7 on my intel D945GNT board. I am doing the clean installation is gooing smooth upto the "completing installation" step. Once it reaches that step after that its refreshing first time. Then it is hanging there.
I am not able to figure out the problems from the previous threads. I don't have any ethernet connection to that PC and even there is no graphics card expect the on board card.
Previously I was using vista, but now I am not able to install vista also. If I install vista also in the same place the installation getting stuck.
Whatever this is has really messed up my computer! I can't play any DVDs or any video that uses Flash or Shockwave! I'm getting desperate, I have used Driver Genius Professional to no avail.Intel no longer offers any kind of support, I have tried downloading their general driver but every time it locks up and crashes, I assume for the same reason the Flash and Shockwave does.
I have heard that maybe some versions of Windows 7, such as Starter or Home Basic, will not permit the automatic switching to a stand alone graphic card (Nvidia or ATI Radeon).
I wish to find out if this is correct and if so, which versions are restricted? I use Photoshop and play HD video files up to 2GB in size, so I want to ensure switching is performed for improved graphical performance. Based on this finding, I can then decide what O/S to buy with a new laptop I'm about to purchase.
I am building two servers with identical hardware ... Intel S5520HCT mother board, dual Xeon E5607 2.26GHz, Seagate SATA 2TB drive, 8GB Crucial memory and OCZ Agility SSD drives. I am using the onboard video and motherboard has been update with the latest BIOS.
But when I install Windows 7 Pro 64 to 50GB partition on the SATA drive, or to a single partition SSD ... the system hangs after the final reboot right after "Updating Registry" and "Starting Services" during the "Completing Installation" phase. The next input should be username and computer name ... but it never gets to that.
I have minimum hardware attached ... disabled networking in BIOS ... and tried with a number of different memory configurations ... etc .. etc ... but still the same result .. and I am now totally clueless. I even tested all my hardware on a Tyan S7025 board ... and there it installs without any issues.
I recently rebuilt my pc with a gigabyte ga h77m d3h and core i3 2120 with 512m dedicated to on board graphics. The computer will start fine after you do the fresh install of windows 7 prof. 64 bit with the default video driver from windows. I've updated my bios using gigabyte's @bios tool and I've tried installing th drivers from the disc, from intel's website and with automatic update in device manager. Could a corrupt windows install file cause this issue? I downloaded the ISO from the Microsoft website when I bought the product key.
error coming keyboard not present on intel orignal board having i5 processor, PS2 keyboard lights glow as soon as keyboard is plugged in the PS2 socket but it does not work, tried to connect a USB keyboard but same message is coming and problem is persisting
I installed Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit build 7600 on my machine and I'm having a problem with the OS not even recognizing my Audio hardware. I've visited the Intel site and I don't see any available options for drivers there...just the following:
RAID: Intel® Matrix Storage Manager Driver for Intel Desktop Boards
I've pulled this down and I'm not quite sure how to install or if this will even correct my problem. All I'm seeing is a red X over the audio icon and when I hover over it I get the message "No Audio Output Device is installed." I had no problems with the device with XP 32 bit. Any suggestions?
i need to update my sound card drivers.... i am on windows 7 and went to the biostar website to update my on board audio drivers and there was nothing available for windows 7.... only vista,xp, etc.
I bought a new laptop now and I am not so well with the technology it says: Intel Corporation driver update for Intel(R) Management Engine Interface so what do I need to do now?
Basically i cannot get video driver to install. It's a fresh install of windows7 64bit on an older computer (Athlon 3700+, 939, HP a1310n), onboard video is ati x300. It's not supported by win7, so I installed the legacy vista drivers (both 9.3 and 10.2) without any luck (wouldn't even install). Aside from windows 7 updates I have not installed anything whatsoever on this computer, including bios drivers (again, not supported by win7). I wanted to install win xp but that's a whole other story (after a couple failed installs, XP stopped accepting my cd-key so I admitted defeat...). He only wants to use the computer to watch movies and online videos. He also gave me an external card (x1650), but computer did not recognize it at all, so onboard video it is. Also, lol, his dvd drive wasn't reading any discs, so I found an old IDE I had and switched it and it worked fine. Funny this is, he only recently had another friend put win7 32bit on it so it must have been working recently, seems odd to 'suddenly' stop responding.I know 64bit is a little slow for this computer, but from a 'cold' start, this has an internet page open in 65 seconds from post! Not too terrible... 32 bit ran quick, but that's no longer an option as all i have is 64 bit
I am performing a clean install to Win 7 Ultimate on an older Dell Precision 530. Running into the usual driver errors and have one that I can't locate...
I need a Win 7-compatible driver for a Intel(r) 82801BA/BAM AC'97 Audio Controller. It is a sound card that is embedded into the motherboard. I have searched for days but cannot locate a driver that works. The few I found said they work but do not.
