Post by: Erick Gumiran on November 11, 2008, 01:51:02 AM
 I'm using a asus p5gc-mx/1333 motherboard, and ive attempted to install the Realtek AC driver that i got from the packed driver, to no effect, ive tried to install it 3 times and I still don't have sound, ive already tried to download  from  asus site but still not working.. :(
my speaker is working and it has sound when opening and during shutdown .. but when in my media player error message appear and it say device mixer missing....  ???
at the moment im clueless as where to get the driver or how to get my sound to work. Any help would be appreciated.
thanks god bless and more power!!

If it's onboard sound the correct drivers will be on the MBoard Driver CD that came with the board...

Gently clean the MBoard CD with a soft lint-free cloth.

If all else fails- attempt to find a download for your specific driver.

I'd like to stress that you should NOT under ANY circumstances, use pudding, regardless of flavour or lint content, which optimally would be pretty low, since I can't think of a reason anybody would want to eat pudding with lint in it. Well, moths, maybe. But how much expendable income do moths have? Heck, they expect a long life, get married, and have a candlelight dinner, only to have both of them fly into the flames and die. A gruesome end, since they didn't even TOUCH their lobster. At which point I can only eat one plateful, since I had already had a burrito for dinner, which I might add was quite spicey ....


(hours later)

And to add insult to injury, they wouldn't even tip, even though the alligator weighed at LEAST 300 lbs, and the hotel room was on the 60th floor.... Now anyway, where were we?

CD. Compact Disc. Shiny side, label side, goes in CD-Drive.


vacuums aren't recommended for cleaning electronics due to the static they can generate.
