Oldfaht Posted August 15, 2005 Posted August 15, 2005 MY Beta Breath Bruthren. How the hale did my onboard sound get disabled on my LPB rig......When I haven't been into the bios in months? Went to play a CD last night and WTF? The media player(s) wouldn't recognize either of my CD-ROMS. Hadn't played anything on this rig in a while and had the vol. turned way down as I don't like Winders beeping at me all the time, so I went to up the vol. and Huh? no NvMixer??? went into device mgr. and No nothing there for the Nv Codecs......So begins about 3 hours of trouble shooting drivers, software, etc. I was about to conclude the SoundStorm chip was dorked and was contemplating disassembly and RMA....... Then It hit me....why don't you go into the bios and have a look see......Lo and Behold I found the audio unit disabled.......Dang ......But like I said I ain't been in the bios in I can't remember when........ So! What the hale happened? :confused: Oldfaht Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oldfaht Posted August 15, 2005 Posted August 15, 2005 OUCH! That's cold, but very possibly true....LOL Guess the bios should've been the first place to look, but didn't ocurr to me 'till later. Still, honest to....... I don't recall having any reason to have disabled it myself! Guess it's just one of those random Personal Confuser Problems OF Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheWizzard Posted August 15, 2005 Posted August 15, 2005 Doesn't it have something to do with the overclocked settings. Same problem as the 'LAN-Drops' which can occur every now and then. But that was fixed disabling APIC/ACPI. But this problem? Hmmz. Strange. What voltsettings do you use? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Been tooling around in the "Wayback Machine" lately... Greatful Dead, Billy Jole, Steely Dan, 60's, 70's, 80's Rock n Roll still gets me smileing and tappin' my toes LOL Still haven't figured out WHY things changed in the bios but all is well now.....
