I take my cd into cd-rom and search by the device manager !
It found and in device manager shows : The driver is working ( it seems that is all good and the sound icon in taskbar can shows ) but when I want to listen music or anything it is no sound
this problem is only in Windows 7 Ultimate 32BIT !
I've been trying for a long time to install the drivers for the sound of my ASUS P5VD1-X, that uses the SoundMax AD1888 chipset with no success. I found many solutions for Windows Vista in the web, but no one worked for me. I'm using the build 6801 64 bit. BTW, the Asus site doesn't provides the drivers for Vista, only for XP, 32 or 64 bit. If anyone knows a hack to install XP drivers in the Windows 7 64 bit?
New Soundmax driver, also for Win 7 (not only AD2000, also AD1988, tested by myself with Windows 7/64)
I just received a new Asus Crosshair II Formula motherboard from RMA the Crosshair, excellence Asus tech support. And this new SoundMax driver work great!
Soundmax driver that will work for my computer i've downloaded many but nothing has worked yet, i have an Asus K8V-X SE motherboard and the closest driver that worked was "Realtek AC'97 Audio for VIA (R) Audio Controller" well it doesn't work because no sound actually comes out of it but the speakers do make a noise when it shuts down.
My Windows XP installation has a Soundmax audio driver. Having now the ability to dual boot my computer to Windows 7 I have since learned that there is little likelihood of Soundmax producing a driver compatible with Windows 7. Windows 7 Device Manager indicates under Sound Controller. what it refers to as a High Definition Audio Device and that the drivers installed are working properly but still no sound. Attempts to update these drivers report that the drivers in question are up to date. There is no indication by yellow exclamation marks that anything isn't as it should be in Device Manager.
Any suggestions for restoring sound would be appreciated
Today i installed Windows 7 Ultimate and all worked good with drivers exept sound, have old drivers on CD but this OS doesnt support that old drivers...checked this thread (have same problem) soundmax integrated driver and tryed to install that and same still problem
Motherboard is : Asus P4P800S-X series, drivers should be from soundmax
I have PC Lenovo ThinkCentre A52 - 8326 using windows XP, And now I have just installed Windows 7 - 32bit for this PC but I have problem, that is Sound is not install althought I've searched on internet,
This appears to be working but there is no sound. I get the message "failed to play test tone" when I click test in playback devices. Windows update automatically downloads updates for this and then tells me that it is working when it isn't. I have even tried to use generic drivers (like realteks) to see if that would work. I've tried compatibility mode with no luck as well.
Current Broken/non-funtioning Driveri : Soundmax Integrated Driver Version 5.12.1.5290 System : HP Pavillion dv4015cl OS : Windows 7 Build 7022.winmain.090115-1850
Everything is working, except for the sound card. the soundcard it's a SoundMax.
I tried installing both drivers, driver for Vista 32bit, and for Xp 32bit. I also tried using mixed: the soundmax program for XP32, and the driver of Vista 32.
unfortunately nothing is working.
the problem is very strange: winamp and media center works as everything is going fine (no problems are found), but the computer is mute.
The microphone is working perfectly, but of course I can't listen to what I recorded, because the computer is mute.
it's like there are no speakers.Same problem if I use the headphones, there is no sound.
Volume is 100%, Mixer is 100%, and the spectre is working, so the computer feels like it's actually sounding!!!
I've tried several times solving this issue but nothing seems to work.
I own an Asus M2N32-Sli motherboard with SoundMax 7.1 integrated audio and I'm trying to get a 5.1 sound system work on this. Windows is able to recognize the audio card perfectly (I don't even have to install any drivers). Control Panel allows me to configure it just fine, even the test works great; all 6 speakers work in the test, but they do not work in any application (Windows Media Player, Power DVD, Winamp...), I only hear the front speakers, not the surround or the SW/center ones.
I guess this is not a driver issue since they work perfectly in the test, but if anyone can give any suggestion, I'd really appreciate it.
I installed the Windows 7 7057.But cant hear 5.1 sound from my speakers.MB Asus P5B and Analog Devices AD1988A sound card on board. i am right clicking the playback devices, speakers tab and configure and select the speaker setup as 5.1 surround. Testing and i can hear all channels. But when i play a song on winamp , i can hear only left and right channels.Also Sonic Focus enabled and latest vista driver installed. Does anyone have the same problem or something similar?
