A friend is sending me a USB audio adapter to play sound after my chip died (I assume). The computer does beep through the speakers, but no sound from videos and such. I was going to get a card, but he told me to try the adapter first. This computer is old and I only use it occasionally. I need the audio for the videos I use. I'm not sure if I need to disable the audio chip in the BIOS for something else to work. Any thoughts?
