[No Sound] Windows 7

[Taalar]

Hi, as it says in the topic name, I have no sound, and I  can't find the solution.

I am using Intel(R) 915 Express motherboard, and the integrated sound card, which doesn't work cause of problems with drivers. I have searched for the right drivers and tried to install them, but haven't made it yet. Windows 7 can't seem to find the right thing either, so now I am turning for help from you.

Have you tried DLoading and installing the Vista drivers ? ?

[Taalar]

Yes, cause there is no windows 7 drivers I downloaded the Vista drivers instead, but it isn't sure I got the right ones.

What OS were you running before?

Are you sure that your hardware supports Windows 7?

[Taalar]

I used Linux Fedora 11 before (changed due to faults with the graphics card and a higher demand from other family members) so there was no windows upgrade but a total format of the disc with new partitions. The computor came with Windows XP.

It could be compability problems, and if I can't find a solution, I may put in another soundcard.

After a quick look at the mother board specs, I don't beleive that it's supported by Windows 7.

Intel certainly doesn't claim that it is.

Okey. Well everything else works, and it is just the sound that is missing, and I got an Audigy soundblaster from Creative in a broken computor here, so I'll try to install that one instead and see if it works together with 7.

That might do it, sometimes the integrated audio can be a PITA.  Let us know.

Okey, wont have the time to do it in some days though so it might take it's time. Thanks for the help
