Title: Disabled audio front ports?
Post by: ganimede on August 15, 2006, 04:55:24 AM: Hello, I'm Lara from Italy. I've just bought a new computer, the case is an ASUS chassis, with audio ports on the front, and I've got an Asrock motherboard with video and audio cards on board.

The audio front ports don't work... Do I have to enable them somehow?

Thanks for your help

Lara

How about posting the model # of the board and we can look for a manual? Or do you already have one of those?

My motherboard is an Asrock AM2NF4G-SATA2

The front ports are on the case, an ASUS Chassis Mini Tower TM-25 Series, and they're already connected to the motherboard...

I tried to check the bios, but I couldn't find anything... How are they called in the bios?

Thanks :)

You should be able to get a manual here if you don't have one. All of this should be covered there. ;)
