KT3-Ultra Onboard Sound Card

Does the KT3-ultra's onboard sound card support eax
or dolby surround? Cos I can't seem to get any games
to use the left/right rear speakers at all.
Such games include warcraft 3 and counterstrike.
Running the latest drivers from avance, and using
windows 2000 Professional.

Thanks for the speedy reply guys.
What the question initially intended to ask was if
the onboard sound card allowed me to play games
with full surround sound support using eax/dolby.
I assume the answer to this question is no.
With regards to playing DVDs, yes I can get the 6
channel sound, and the speaker test in the tray
confirms this.
But as I don't really watch DVDs on my computer,
and use it more for games and work, I assume I
have to get a SB Live or some sort to actually get
eax/dolby support within games. Is this correct?
Thanks again.

  • Unable to make microphone to work on NVIDIA MCP55 onboard sound card

    Hello.
    Some time ago, I bought a nice HP xw9400 Workstation (with Dual Core AMD Opteron  2216) from Germany. Despite it's starting to become old by today's standards for some stuff like gaming, it's still quite okay to use and the SAS HDD makes it boot fastly. And it has one of the best cases, you can plug PCI/PCIe/PCI-X cards very easily and it's very nice to change or add HDDs. Maybe I'll upgrade the CPUs (I can upgrade the bios and it seems it can support better CPUs) if I find them on eBay or other place.
    I have less problems with Arch than the rest of distributions, but I still have weird issues. Despite my computer hardware is somewhat old, I still experience weird problems everywhere (it seems I have some kind of weird "luck").
    I have problems using my microphone under Arch with "NVIDIA Corporation MCP55 High Definition Audio (rev a2)" onboard sound card , here is the relevant info.

    Sorry, that was wrong, I meant
    arecord -l
    Have you tried making a virtual loopback device like above and using
    arecord -vv -fdat out.wav
    You should see the #### fluctuate as you speak into the mic. If not, then unmute and turn up your mic in alsamixer. That loopback device will allow you to capture your sound card and hear it at the same time. Another way to do it is to use a jumper from line out to line in on your sound device. You won't be able to hear it while you record though.
    If your sound device works, then you can capture what's going through it. You'll need to determine which vitual device your mic is.
    Example
    arecord -l

  • 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!

  • Hp pavillion dv9000 onboard sound card/speakers not recognized

    I have an old HP Pavillion dv9000, it has been with me for a while.  I took it with me to Iraq back in 2007-2008 and it has a lot of sentimental value to me.  I don't currently have the funds to replace it, and it still works quite well for my needs as a full-time student; however, last week I moved into a new apartment and discovered that for whatever reason it no longer recognizes its onboard sound card or speakers.  Additionally, sound no longer works through the headphones, and I've also attempted to update drivers but it made no difference.  There is a red circle x over the speaker icon in the tray and I recieve a "No Audio Output Device is installed" message when I scroll over it.  I'm running on Windows Vista and the speakers worked fine just last week.  Lastly, I attempted to find the sound card myself to see if perhaps it needed reseating, but I had no idea where to look.  Any help to resolve this issue would be greatly appreciated.

    Hello fredo5,
    Please take a look at the troubleshooting steps in this document, and let me know if it helps resolve your sound issues.
    Good luck!

  • Pblm with onboard sound card

    I have a KT4 Ultra, with ddr 1go, a 450W power for about 6 hard disks on ide 1, 2 and a pci card, and I'm alwaus using the onboard soundchip c-media 3728. I dunno why, but since a few weeks, while no change has been made to my pc hardware, I began to have this annoying pblm: when I'm doing heavy reading/writing tasks on my hard disks on the pci card, while playing mp3 or divx on my ide1 hdd with any software player, then the sound is continuously very jerky. I have win xp pro sp1+rollup, the latest via4in1 driver for my motherboard, and the latest one for the integrated sound card.
      Anybody knows how to solve it?

    Well yes my ide1 and 2 are in UDMA mode.

  • KT3 Ultra onboard audio

    I have bought KT3 Ultra 3 days ago. There's problem with onboard sound codec. Testing of speakers in 2, 4, and 6 speaker mode in sound driver settings doesn't work - when I click on any speaker it does nothing. But the major problem is very unpleasant crackling coming from speakers when playing for example mp3's.
    If this sound chip or driver for it provided by MSI is so bad, I will probably switch to ASUS.
    Can someone help ?

     My 1st two questions would be....
     1) What OS are you running
     2) Are you using the audio drivers that came with the
           MSI CD?- if so, UPGRADE!
     ... assuming your sound is enabled in the BIOS, if you're running Win98 (gold) you'll be installing the Virtual Device Drivers (VXD)- which is a bad thing! You will want to verify that you have the WDM drivers installed. Also, the newer audio drivers on MSI's web site are much improved over the one that came with the CD. Personally, I think the onboard sound is pretty sweet!

    Hello!
    Have you tested your hearing?   Sorry!
    I got a Tbird too, of the 100 kind. There is also a 133 kind. Which is yours?
    Has it always been like this, that is, have it ever worked? Normally sound problems are Windows related, but this was odd.
    Is there good contact for the speaker cable? Try jerking it a bit, in and out?
    Any error messages in Device Manager? Could try - again - uninstalling current driver, reboot to enter SafeMode and reinstall.
    Here is an advice from the Internet: "You are probably using a mono plug for stereo speakers. Either that, or the driver may not be loading correctly. On some systems, if your sound card drivers are not loaded in CONFIG.SYS, you will only have left-side sound." http://www.5starsupport.com/faq/sound.htm#1-5

  • Kt3 ultra no sound

  • KT4-Ultra-Onboard sound problems

    I bought my KT4 Ultra in September and I've heard some talk about being defective. Just to start off by saying that for it may be my problem.... Anyways, I'm having problems with my onboard sound. When I play music, my sound kinda stutters. To best describe it, my sound doesnt skip or anything, but every now and then i hear an extra "drum beat" in my music where there shouldn't be. Please post if you know anyhing about it. Thanks.

    Thanks Vatoloco
    I know my problem doesnt have anything to do with ripping or the software. All I knowis that the problem is with either my motherboard or something involved indirectly...
    Anyways, to help you out, thry using different software and see if that's the problem. If not, try unplugging all your IDE cables and audio cable in ur case and reconnecting for you might have a bad connection. Lastly, check out your cd drive.

  • KT 4 Ultra onboard sound

    On the KT4 Ultra 6590 mobo that I have is it possible to connect the digital or analogue SPDIF output to a Dolby Digital Receiver and get 5.1 or 6.1 or whatever surround my Receiver is capable of decoding. I do not like the idea of using PC speakers for Dolby Digital surround (I would firstly have to buy some), I would prefer to use the speakers connected to my Dolby Digital Receiver.
    Thanks

    Yes you can do it cause Im doing it and have done it with KT3 ULTRA. I have Yamaha TSS-1 and connected SPDIF(this output is digital you cant get analogue output from SPDIF) and I can use DOLBY DIGITAL and DTS options. And the answer to your question is a big YES. If you make your configuration right it must work. What reciever are you using by the way?

Maybe you are looking for
