K8TM-ILSR Onboard sound disabled

Hello all,
I recently got a new pc with the K8TM-ILSR. All works fine, except one thing. The onboard soundcard seems to disable as soon as I plug in a pci soundcard. I love having 2 soundcards, but I cant get it to work. The onboard sound is ofcourse enabled in the bios, and it gets detected as soon as I remove my pci soundcard, but when I plug it back in, it disappears. Are there any fixes for this? Help is greatly appreciated.
Many thanks,
Paul

Its in the 3rd pci slot, also tried it in the 2nd slot, but no difference..,
Thanks anyway.

  • K7N2 Delta Onboard Sound Disable Question

    I have a K7N2 Delta motherboard with a MSI FX5600 256MB DDR video card.  I am currently using the onboard audio.  Ever since I first built this computer I have been having nearly every game I play on it lock up and freeze.  I am thinking that it is a sound issue that is causing this problem, so I want to install a Creative Labs Sound Blaster Live.  I have several questions that I hope someone can answer as I have exhausted all avenues and still don't have any answers.  Here are my questions:
       1.  How do I disable the onboard sound?  ie  Which jumper is it and what are the
            jumper settings?
       2.  Which PCI slot is recommended for installing the sound card so that I won't
            any IRQ conflicts?
       3.  Is this actually an audio problem or is there something else wrong with this
            motherboard or video card?
    This is becoming very frustrating because when the computer locks up all I can do is just reset without shutting down.  I'm becoming more and more worried that if this continues unabated I'm going to crash the hard drive and have to replace it only to have the problem persist.  I hope someone can give me specific answers to my questions.  Thank you in advance for your help.

    First. Is it K7N2 Delta-L or Delta-ILSR (the one with an actual Soundstorm chip on it)? If you have the actual Soundstorm chip, use it! It will sound much better than an SBLive. Assuming you have the normal K7N2 Delta-L like I have:
    1. To disable the onboard sound, first uninstall the drivers for it, then you need to go into the BIOS by holding the Delete key while you boot up. Then find the section "Integrated Peripherals" and in that section "Onboard Devices". Press Enter and find AC97 Audio and disable it. There are no jumpers.
    2. PCI slots 1, 2 and 3 are usually not shared with other stuff like you AGP or USB ports. PCI Slot 3 is the ideal choice. 1 is usually covered by your video card fan anyway. For the SBLive, on Windows XP/2000, get the newest drivers from Creative Labs. The file is named "LiveDrvUni-Pack(ENG).exe" and it's file size is 23.3 MB (24,451,404 bytes). They have fixed the "nforce2 + gameport incompatibility".
    3. The problem may be audio related...or not. Which drivers are/were you using for your onboard audio? nvidia or Realtek? Actual Soundstorm chip or crappy software codec? It could also be video card related. Fastwrites? 8x or 4x AGP?

  • K8TM-ILSR how to disable raid controller in bios?

    Hi,
    I have a MSI motherboard K8TM-ILSR, and have 2 sata hdd’s connected.
     I want to test my Maxtor  hdd’s with the tool called “powermax” but this tool, don’t see my hdd’s
    Because it’s on a raid controller. I have my hdd’s in non-raid , when I’m booting I see non-raid, but seems still not disabled.
    Is it possible to disable the raid controller in the bios, or are there other ways?
    The pata controller is used for my cd-rom and writer.
    Please let me know.

    You can actually disable the controller, but you cannot use the disks then.
    I wouldn't try messing with your raid configuration, you may lose data doing so.
    You can try the following: find someone with a mainboard that supports single SATA drives. Install one drive and set the bios setting of the mainboard to IDE for that channel. Now you must be able to use the Maxtor utility. Be aware NOT to let the tool make any changes to the disk. This goes for the mainboard's bios as well. Letting these things change anything to the disk, will cause data loss / distruction of your RAID configuration.
    If you use these two drives in a non-raid mode, you will be fine doing this.

  • Will not boot after disabling onboard sound

    I am trying to install an SB Audigy2 ZS sound card but each time I disable the onboard sound card, I cannot boot my system. It will not boot to CD either.  I have tried disabling with SB Audigy2 ZS card installed and without the card installed. I am using the third PCI slot since the video card uses the first slot's space.
    I tried it without 2 of my hard drives in case I was running low on power, but still will not boot.
    Any ideas?

    i have the newer mobo and also have audigy zs it install just right for me but i have it in pci slot 4 (the last one on my mobo) your manual of your mobo will tell you which pci share the same irq ..but when i had your version of mobo i still had it in slot 4 so try pci 4 or 5 to see if that resolves your problem it souds like your video card and sound card are tying to share the same irq which is a big no no

  • How do I disable the onboard sound in CMOS?

    I have a KT4 Ultra, and I want to disable the onboard sound so I can use my own Soundblaster card.  How do I do this?  I've looked through the BIOS, and nothing seems to stand out.  Do I have to do it on the board itself?

    I just downloaded the KT4 Ultra book and will run you thorugh what you have to do....
    Your board has "C-Media 8738MX 6-channel audio with SPDIF out" so you will have to disabled it in Bios if you want to use a PCI sound card.
    1.  Reboot your PC and press "DELETE" to enter Bios.
    2.  Select "Integrated Peripherals"
    3.  Scroll down until you see "OnBoard PCI Controller" and then "Audio Controller".  (It's last on the list!).
    4.  Select "DISABLED"
    5.  Select "SAVE & EXIT SETUP".
    6.  Turn off your PC.
    7.  Put your new PCI Sound Card in...I recommend PCI Slots 2-5.  Try to keep PCI 1 and 6 clear....
    8.  Reboot.  Your OS will go into "FOUND NEW HARDWARE".  Wait until it's done.  
    9.  Put your new PCI Sound card driver CD in and load the new drivers....REBOOT.

  • How do I disable the onboard Sound card in BIOS on the Equium A200

    I am using a Creative Sound Blaster external soundcard but the recording level is very low and have been advised by Creative to disable the onboard sound card in BIOS but there is no option to do this. Can anyone help ?

    Hi
    You cannot disable it in the BIOS.
    If you want to disable the sound card you can do this in the device manager!

  • Disabling onboard sound on K8T Neo?

    Hello,
    I'm probably being really stupid here but I just can't seem to find the BIOS setting to disable the onboard sound. Can't find it on any of the BIOS pages, can't find it in the manual and there doesn't seem to be a dipswitch on the board itself.
    Anyone?
    TIA

    I must have looked through that menu 20 times and not noticed the submenu. Cos it's in yellow rather than white I read it as a title rather than a menu item.
    I am stupid. Cheers.

  • Disable onboard sound

    How do I disable onboard sound on a KT4 Ultra?  I have Bouston Acoustic (sold by gateway) speakers that require Direct Digital Output to work and it does not seem to be supported by c-media. So I have to install my soundblaster Live!  Can anyone help me either disable on-board sound or get the on-board to support Direct Digital output?
    Thanks

     ?(

    you can uninstall the drivers for the onborad sound.  To reinstall your sound blaster remove it from Device Manager and restart your machine and follow the makers instructions, either point the system to the drivers or use the installer, which ever they recommend.

  • K7N2-ILSR Sudden freezing due to onboard sound

    I have had a few problems from the start with the K7N2-ILSR, i have overcome them all except my machine freezes when the onboard sound is enabled.  I do not have any other cards in my machine except for my Geforce4.
    The problem will only occur when the onboard sound has been eneabled in the bios it will happen when you play sound or not it just locks up or restarts!!!
    I have read through alot of the posts and i havn't come across any problems that are the same.
    Could you please give me some help as i am getting really annoyed with it.

  • [Athlon64] Unable to disable onboard sound

    I had upgraded my bios (a good while ago the version escapes me at the moment) to fix the problem I had been having with my 2 512 mb sticks of ram running at slower speeds or crashing the system and I just noticed that a setting to turn off onboard sound is missing (or I just can't find it).

    If you have installed Bios version 2.2 then try dropping back to 2.0. 2.2 has some serious issues that have not been addressed as yet.

  • I'm at a loss with the onboard sound

    I can't get my 6 5.1 speakers to work on mt KT4 Ultra board, so I'm considering putting my Sound Blaster back in and disabling the onboard sound. What kind of a performance hit will I take?
    I can get the fronts to work, or the rears to work but not all six. I have tried everything I can think of.
    Thanks,

    Hi,
    Have you set up the C-Media drivers for 5.1/6.1 sound? The settings for each speaker configuration can be found if you double-click the c-media icon next to the clock and select the settings button. Note how the plug configuration changes if you change the type of speakers.
    I found that the 6.1 configuration with the headphone(?) option ticked makes all my 5.1 speakers work ok. I'm not saying I haven't got any sound problems but at least they all work.
    I've also found that individual apps also need to be setup for the better speakers as well. PowerDVD needs to have the setting specifically set or the sounds all over the place.
    Hope this helps
