MSI Ultra 745 on-board Sound Card Problem

I have a MSI Ultra 745 MB (ms-6561 is stamped on the board itself) that I bought barebones, no software. I had XP running on it, but had to reload everything a few days ago. Now I cannot get the built-in sound card to work.
It is a RealTek AC97 onboard soundcard. I DL the software from the MSI site, and it seems to install fine. But when you go to the sound controls in CP, it says that no devices are installed.
Device manager shows the software installed with no conflicts.
If I try to reinstall the software again over top itself, about 2/3 of the way thru the install, it wil reboot the whole machine. This has happened several times.
If I remove and then reinstall the audio software, it installs fine with no errors and reboots normally. But still CP shows no sound device installed, and there is no speaker on the systray.
I am lost on this one, especially since it worked fine the first time.

That was my next move.  Like I said, this one baffles me.  I just can't see why it won't work.  I have installed prob 40-50 systems in my day and I have never had this kind of problem.  Thanks for the help anyway.

  • MSI Z87 MPower Max on board sound card vs SS Sibera v2 sound card

    Hey,
    I've been wondering which sound card should i use, the on board sound card or the SteelSeries Siberia V2 sound card
    thanks :D

    Recently i made the following system for a custumor:
    AMD 64 4000
    K8N Diamond
    2 x 512DDR 400 Elixir
    128mb Geforce 6600GT (Sparkle)
    2 x 250GB Maxtor 8mb on ide
    DVD-rom Lite-on
    DVD-RW NEC 3250
    MSI TV@nywhere
    12in1 Card reader
    Floppy
    Qtec 650W  Tripple Fan PSU
    In this configuration the system works perfectly but my custumor found the power supply to noisy. So I chanched it to an ENERMAX EG425AX-VE this made the system very quiet unfortunately too quiet because there wasn't any sound anymore
    I thought it came from the power supply so I chanced it with an antec true power 550W EPS12V. But still there wasn’t any audio working. Then I tried an AOPEN 300W AO300-12APNFthen there was sound but after 2min there came I serious distortion on the sound…
    I also tried a new win xp installation, Unplugging or removing devices but still no result the only PS that works is a cheap qtec 650W Triple Fan. Could you advice me on which PSU I could use in this configuration? Or would a bios update be a solution?

  • Audigy 2 sound card problems

    I am hoping that someone out there can help me in a crucial situation.
    I am using an Audigy 2 sound card with creative 5. speakers.
    I also use Adobe Audition to edit, record sessions for my voice-over jobs.
    Recently, I attempted to hook up a web cam so that I could see my grand daughter on the west coast.
    After hooking up the web cam, I noticed my home studio environment changed drastically. I began having trouble with recording using my microphone through my Macki mixer. I began hearing a continuous hiss that I had never experienced before.
    In fact after uninstalling the web cam, and restarting my computer, I got that horrible blue screen on my computer indicating the world was about to end! Smile
    Long story short, I was able to finally get my computer back up, but I continue to experience problems recording "clean' audio".
    Three things, after reinstalling Creative from disc several times and restarting my computer I receive a window stating Creative Media Source Detector.....Unable to load needed components....Please reinstall the application"
    Also, when trying to test my sound hardware I get a message stating...Direct play voice setup..."an error occurred during direct play voice setup....error code 0x80004005
    Last but not least I cannot access the "Creative diagnostic feature on my computer. I only get a small window for this feature that will not open up fully and allow me to run a diagnostic test!
    I know this is a lot to absorb, but I cannot get anyone from Creative to address my problems because I am out of warranty and therefore not getting any love from this company.
    Need your advice and or guidance on this.
    Please respond when time allows.

    Re: Audigy 2 sound card problems? use add/remove programs and remove all creative software and drivers, then do the same for your web cam and unplug it
    restart your pc
    download and install [url="http://downloads.guru3d.com/Guru3D---Driver-Sweeper-%28Setup%29-download-655.html" rel="nofollow">driver sweeper[/url] and use it to clean up any left over creative bits and bobs and restart your pc when it asks you to
    now download and install the [url="http://support.creative.com/Products/product_list.aspx?catID=&CatName=Sound+Blaster" rel="nofollow">latest audigy drivers[/url]
    once your back in to windows try recording something and see if everything's back to normal
    now reinstalling your web cam but don't reinstall using the cd that came with it
    find the manufacturer's website and get the latest drivers
    install cd's best avoided simply because the software and drivers they contain are typically the initial release versions, and so potentially very old
    and i think we can all agree that old, buggy drivers can be a real pain

  • On-board sound card failing. Will BIOS let me add a sound card into the PCIE slot?

    On-board sound card failing, consistently locking everything, (yes, I updated all drivers, codecs) so want to put in new sound card. Will the BIOS let me add a sound card into the PCIE slot? (of course after disabling the ReakTek onboard sound) I don't see an option to choose PCI or PCI-E in the setup screen (F10 at boot) for audio.

  • Integrated sound card problems

    Hi!
    I own an MSI 845 Ultra-C motherboard. When I used my PC last night, I noticed there was no sound as I started windows XP. I tried playing MP3 with windows media, but an error message appeared, saying that there's a problem with my sound card.. either I don't have one.. or the one I'm using is not functioning properly. When I turned on my computer again this morning, my system was working properly... no more error messages whatsoever. But the problem recurred when I turned it on again earlier. What could be the cause of this? Could it be the integrated sound card on my mobo? This is the first time it ever happened. I checked my manual but found nothing there that could solve the problem.
    Thanks in advance for your help.
     :D

    Hi!
    I checked the BIOS, and under INTEGRATED PERIPHERALS, I saw AC'97 AUDIO which is set to AUTO... do I have to disable it? A friend of mine told me that If I do that, I won't be able to use the integrated sound card anymore. He also added that I should only do that if I decide to buy a PCI sound card. Is he correct in saying so? :D

  • Sound card problem - This device cannot start. (Code

    hi all,
    here's my situation...
    i had a dell dimension 4400 that came with a sound blaster li've! value(wdm) sound card. i recently got a new motherboard/case etc. i transferred the sound card to my new system and i get a "This device cannot start. (Code 0)" error when i check device manager. for some reason, the game port on the sound card is working fine, but the audio processor part has the error. windows recognizes the card, but it won't use it. the card is a little over 3 years old.
    now, i've read the forums, tried a clean install, registry tweaks, changed bios settings, even did a hd format. i also tried different pci slots. i have sp2 and all my other drivers are updated.
    the new motherboard i have is a gigabyte 8ipe000g. i already contacted gigabyte, did not get much help. it has onboard ac97 audio. i disabled the onboard audio, but it did not seem to change anything. i have also tried windows drivers, the dell drivers from the cd, and the drivers from the creative website. none of them changed anything. i am now having trouble removing the drivers from add/remove programs. i keep removing them, but they still remain, even after using the wdm driver remover from the cd (a file named ctapxx.exe, or something similar). it's almost like windows is not actually installing the drivers when i install them. i'm wondering if the code 0 error is specifically driver related.
    the first time i disabled the onboard audio and updated the drivers a weird thing happened. every time i started the computer up it would crash when it got to the desktop. it no longer does this for some reason, everything now starts up, but i have no audio. the sound card is the only device giving me problems on my system.
    is there anything else i need plugged into the sound card? all i have is the sound card plugged into the pci slot, and an audio cord going from the card to my dvd dri've. is there anything that is supposed to go from the card directly to the motherboard? as far as i can tell, i have everything hooked up correctly. i don't understand why the game port works, but not the audio processor.
    so, i have basically tried everything. seems like quite a few people get code 0 errors with some sort of hardware they have, but it usually seems like there is no definite solution.
    does anyone have a similar problem, or a solution? hopefully i don't have to get a new sound card. i would just stick with my onboard audio, but i hear it can cause problems with games.

    Since you have a new board it maybe a bios setting.
    Is there IRQ conflict from the soundcard.
    Maybe remove the card and unistall the software, use a tool "driver cleaner pro" to remove all creative files.
    Check your mainboard manual on what pci slot that dont share, i hear slot 3 is the one to use, i use slot 5.
    Fit the card and reinstall.
    Best of luck.

  • New Install Sound-card Problems

    Hello all, trying out Arch Linux and everything else works for the most part, but it seems I may have messed up an option while configuring ASLA.
    My laptop is a MSI CR650-016US if it helps knowing the model.
    Description of problem: At the beginning of configuring the audio I had 2 options for sound cards, but now I'm missing the one that had the most option bars (master, headphone, etc.) which happens to be my analog one. It came back while the writing of this post, but it seems to have gone back to the way it was before. I try to change the volume via alsamixer, but I just get the HDMI output which doesn't output via my speakers.
    I have tried editing rc.conf, modprobe.conf, and asound.conf.
    If I need to post some other outputs from the terminal please post and I'll do it. Any help would be appreciated, since I'd like to get some sound on my build. Thanks.

  • Sound card problem: static/crackling and no sound

    I've had a late 2010 Macbook Air for over 3 years (February 2011). About a week or two ago I started hearing a strange popping noise every now and then while I was using headphones. I thought it was a problem with the headphones but then discovered the same thing when I used different external speakers. Almost simultaneously the internal speakers started periodically having no sound at all, even though it wasn't on mute. This was previously fixed by restarting the computer, but now the problem is permanent. The popping noise when using headphones has also rapidly worsened, and now crackles constantly and sometimes there is even very loud white noise. This occurs with any program on my computer - web browsers, spotify, itunes etc. As it's over three years old, I no longer have AppleCare. I'm not too keen on taking it into the Genius Bar unless I have some idea of how much it will cost beforehand, as I also need to replace my battery soon, which is going to be 129 euros. Does anyone know how to fix this problem, and if not, how much does it usually cost to replace the sound card? I'm using Mavericks but the problem started some time after I installed it.
    After doing some googling to try to fix it I've tried:
    - Turning it off and on again
    - Installing AntiPop
    - PRAM reset
    - SMC reset
    - Disabling and reinstalling Adobe on google chrome
    - Resetting the sound card with terminal

    Thanks Linc Davis. I thought I'd have to pay for the consultation at the Genius Bar, but you're quite right, it is free and you can decide not to go ahead if the quote they give is too much. Just thought I'd write what happened in case anyone else has the same problem. The cause was basically a small cable that needed to be repaired, which cost about 76 euros. I took it to an Apple Store in Paris and they fixed it within 24 hours, even though they estimated 3-5 days. He said another reason this problem might be occurring is because the Logic Board needs to be replaced which would have cost around 360 euros (probably not worth the money for a 3.5 year old laptop), but thankfully it was just the cable.

  • Windows 7 64 bit Sound Card Problem

    In January 2009, we had a 64 bit operating system problem http://forums.adobe.com/message/1015026#1015026. Our software, which was published using Version 6.5, was freezing on a customer’s computer on playing the first sound file, then if the sound file was by-passed, on displaying the first swf. The problem was eventually resolved by Mike Baker publishing our a6p file in Authorware 7, and this cured the fault. So we upgraded to Authorware 7.02 and since then no further problems ... until December 2010.
    We launched our Italian Course late November and had a not dissimilar sort of problem reported by a customer. He's tried uninstalling & re-installing the software but the fault keeps re-occurring. The computer displays a "not responding" message. Debugging, we discovered that the message appears when trying to play the initial mp3 file (fixed bit rate) … the program does eventually continue but without playing the sound file. It then keeps hanging (there are thousands of sound files in our course), and none of the sound files play: text & pictures are displaying normally. Eventually the program freezes and has to be killed with ctrl+alt+delete.
    The computer in question is a Dell Inspiron 580s, & the operating system Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit. I’m awaiting details of the sound card & confirmation that his drivers are up-to-date but I presume they will be (Windows 7 default is to keep drivers updated). I haven’t got the customer to carry out basic tests sound file tests yet, but he indicates no problems with Media Player or with iTunes.
    Extras in our XTRAS folder include:-
    AWMP3.X32
    MIX32.X32
    MIXVIEW.X32
    NETFILE.X32
    SWADCMPR.X32
    VIEWSVC.X32
    INETURL.X32
    FLASHASSET/FLASHAST.X32
    The database for our Italian course is now in ProgramData. (previous courses, database was in Program Files and run in XP compatible mode). We’re having problems with this location with Windows 7 64 bit … it is maintaining a copy in Virtual Store and updating the file there. No such problem with XP, Vista or Windows 7 32 bit. I see this as an unrelated problem. We got the customer to run the software in XP mode but the problem was not corrected.
    We do have customers successfully running our software on Windows 7 64 bit operating system computers; we had a minor ODBC glitch reported recently from a 64 bit user.
    Any suggestions would be appreciated.

    Tom,
    I concur with Steve that this is probably system-specific. A couple of things you may want to try:
    1. Be sure you're using the Xtras that came with Authorware 7.02 and not 6.5. For example, I believe mixview.x32 and viewsvc.x32 were updated in Authorware 7.
    2. Try making a little AW program with 4 or 5 buttons that each trigger an imported MP3 file, where each audio file has different output settings (e.g. mono vs stereo, 64kbps vs. 92 kbps, etc.). Package it up and send it to the Dell user to test it. You may stumble upon an audio output setting that works on that particular machine.

  • Boot camp "sound card" problem

    Oh goodness. I seem to be one of many that is experiencing problems with the sound card in boot camp. Hopefully someone can help my situation.
    I have set up the boot camp partition and installed Windows XP...and am using VMWare. Everything seems to be running smoothly in the partition except for the sound card. I work in special education and have a program called "Writing With Symbols" that is only made for Windows. When I try to run the program, a box appears stating "Error selecting a TTS engine (No sound card?) app will terminate" and then the "lovely" little error report box comes up. If anyone knows how to fix this problem, I would greatly appreciate the information!!
    Thank you!!

    I have updated with the OSX 10.5 disc and updated the drivers. I have done several internet searches that included information about text-to-speech to possible problems running WWS2000. I followed the directions for how to install the program when using it in a bootcamp partition on a Mac but the same problems kept occurring. I have googled the error box message that comes up and followed the directions for the two possible solutions that were listed on the product support page. At this point I am not sure what else to do.

  • [SOLVED] USB sound card problems and audio setup

    I want to clarify and correctly set up my ThinkPad T61 sound system finally.
    I'm running Arch64 + KDE.
    There are two sound cards - the internal HDA Intel and external USB CM118.
    aplay -l
    **** List of PLAYBACK Hardware Devices ****
    card 0: Set [C-Media USB Headphone Set], device 0: USB Audio [USB Audio]
    Subdevices: 1/1
    Subdevice #0: subdevice #0
    card 1: Intel [HDA Intel], device 0: AD198x Analog [AD198x Analog]
    Subdevices: 0/1
    Subdevice #0: subdevice #0
    card 1: Intel [HDA Intel], device 1: AD198x Digital [AD198x Digital]
    Subdevices: 1/1
    Subdevice #0: subdevice #0
    First of all, why are there both analog and digital subdevices?
    I just need playback and/or recording support for these applications: opera, firefox, skype, clementine, mplayer, vmplayer. As high quality as possible.
    Per-application sound control would be nice but if that adds too much clutter, I could live without it. No need for audio streaming or any other luxuries.
    All the applications should use the USB card whenever it's plugged in. The internal SC should take over when CM118 is unplugged.
    The problem is that most of the time it doesn't work. For example, if I plug out the USB card and then run some application like Clementine or Firefox there would be no sound ("connection refused" in Clementine).
    Here is my asound.conf:
    defaults.pcm.card 0
    defaults.pcm.device 0
    defaults.ctl.card 0
    Also kMix/amix should switch the master channel from HDA Intel Master to C-Media Master automatically. The only way to do this is to write some kind of script, right?
    AFAIK the following audio components are installed: ALSA, OSS (for some unknown reason), Phonon, Gstreamer.
    I guess I can uninstall OSS without worries as no one seems to need it (checked with "whoneeds").
    What about that Phonon? Would it override the asoud.conf if I set default device there? Why there are so many different devices in the Phonon configuration list:
    C-Media USB Headphone Set, USB Audio (Default Audio Device)
    C-Media USB Headphone Set (USB Audio)
    C-Media USB Headphone Set, USB Audio (IECblablabla)
    hw:1,0
    hw:1,1
    default
    Intel Analog
    Intel Digital
    blablalba
    And that C-Media triplet for every USB port the CM118 has been plugged in.
    Too much confusion! All that mess for just two different cards.
    So what is the proper way of setting primary and secondary sound cards in this situation?
    Thank you!

    I am sorry for my very late response and the lack of structure in my post.
    I did some investigation and found a rather acceptable workaround for one of my problems described below.
    Here is the basic functionality I need:
    1. Automatic (on the fly) switching to the external sound card when it's plugged in and automatic fallback to the integrated SC when usb is unplugged.
    2. Automatic (on the fly) switching of the kMix's master channel according to the changes mentioned above.
    As for the first problem, I found this udev rule:
    KERNEL=="pcmC[D0-9cp]*", ACTION=="add", PROGRAM="/bin/sh -c 'K=%k; K=$${K#pcmC}; K=$${K%%D*}; echo defaults.ctl.card $$K > /etc/asound.conf; echo defaults.pcm.card $$K >>/etc/asound.conf"
    KERNEL=="pcmC[D0-9cp]*", ACTION=="remove", PROGRAM="/bin/sh -c 'echo defaults.ctl.card 0 > /etc/asound.conf; echo defaults.pcm.card 0 >>/etc/asound.conf'"
    This solution has some disadvantages but it is acceptible. If you know of any better solution, please tell me.
    For the second problem, I found this script which uses qdbus org.kde.kmix /Mixers org.kde.KMix.MixSet.setCurrentMaster method to set the master channel. However, I think that constant monitoring for the usb SC being plugged is not very effective. So I thought appending the following code to the second line of the previous udev rule would do the work:
    , RUN+="/usr/bin/qdbus org.kde.kmix /Mixers org.kde.KMix.MixSet.setCurrentMaster "ALSA::C-Media_USB_Headphone_Set:1" "Speaker:0""
    But that results in some weird behaviour: master channel stays the same but there would be three new tabs in the kMix window now: USB Set", USB Set# and USB Set$.

    You see, the probe thing is running multiple times!
    And here is an excerpt from udev debugger:
    starting '/usr/bin/qdbus org.kde.kmix /Mixers org.kde.KMix.MixSet.setCurrentMaster '
    '/usr/bin/qdbus org.kde.kmix /Mixers org.kde.KMix.MixSet.setCurrentMaster '(err) 'Could not connect to D-Bus server: org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.NotSupported: Unable to autolaunch a dbus-daemon without a $DISPLAY for X11'
    '/usr/bin/qdbus org.kde.kmix /Mixers org.kde.KMix.MixSet.setCurrentMaster ' [2769] exit with return code 1
    '/usr/bin/qdbus org.kde.kmix /Mixers org.kde.KMix.MixSet.setCurrentMaster '(err) 'Could not connect to D-Bus server: org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.NotSupported: Unable to autolaunch a dbus-daemon without a $DISPLAY for X11'
    Some kind of X11 problem... And also happening twice! Why?
    Running the setCurrentMaster method in terminal works very nicely, so the problem must be the way udev runs it.
    One last thing - sometimes the usb SC automatically reconnects (disconnects and connects). I read somewhere that most probably the usb device makes the trouble, but maybe there are other possiblities?

  • PCI Sound Card Problems in MEGA PC

    Added a new Sound Blaster Live 5.1 card in my PCI slot. I use a special audio program that creates 2 stereo outputs from that card.
    I've had this card in my older PC and it works fine. When installed in MEGA PC PCI Slot one of the outputs has a low volume and the other is normal. Why?
    I tried to use the stereo outs of the integrated sound card with my programand got the same problem. One stereo out has a much lower volume than the other.
    I using Win 98SE/and Sound Blaster Live 5.1. I hope I can get some help or I plan on returning this unit to my local retailer.

    Thanks for responding. I did try disabling the onboard sound via the BIOS. No change to the problem.
    Even the onboard sound card has this problem when trying to use 2 stereo outs. I found I could balance the outputs by using the AV Rack application. You use it to control the volumes on each output channel. The problem is I can only decrease th louder channel's volume I can't increase the volume on the other and this is what I need to do.

  • External Sound Card Problems

    I've been enjoying my HP dv7-1025nr for the past few months with no problems.  I recently decided to get into home audio recording and purchased an M-audio profire 2626 external sound card which connects through firewire.  I've yet to get any sound from my computer through the device.  I have downloaded and installed all the latest drivers several times (both for the profire and every other device on my computer).  I've also updated the flash bios for my hp (which i'm still trying to figure out why there's no "advanced" tab in the menu...other users have resolved irq issues this way and it's not even an option for me).  I have reinstalled my OS (several times).  The M-audio tech support suggested purchasing a dedicated firewire card with a TI chipset to solve previous connectivity issues, so I got a Siig 2-port ExpressCard.  My current problem is that even with the profire set as my default playback device, there seems to be a problem where windows is unable to send it any sounds.  If I try to use itunes or windows media player, the timer won't even start when i press play.  Everything works perfectly when i change the windows default playback device to anything else (laptop speakers, spdif out or nvidia hdmi out).  I'm confident that everything on the profire's end is working correctly and there must be some form of harware or software conflict (windows services or otherwise).  Device manager doesn't show and irq conflicts but i'm wondering if there could still be one.  Windows is recognizing the device and the m-audio control utility is working.  The profire also works perfectly through my other computer (a gateway laptop running xp).  I have spent 2 weeks trouble shooting this problem and have come to the conclusion it cannot be fixed through normal trobleshooting means.  I need a programmer to help me out with this one.  Please help.

  • HP Pavilion dv7-1130us IDT HD sound card problem: recording levels too high

    I have been trying to get the IDT HD sound card in my HP Pavilion dv7-1130us laptop to allow me to switch from "microphone" to "Line In" input signal. I cannot find an option anywhere in the laptop do this. There is not a separate Line-In jack on the laptop. The mike jack is it.  
    The reason I'm trying to change the input setting is that I am using Audacity/Lame (the Win 7-compatible Beta version) to convert old cassettes to MP3. My laptop came with Vista but I upgraded to Windows 7 Professional (64-bit) earlier this year.
    The problem is that recording levels are way too high using the mike input and so the recording comes out harsh and distorted. I have tried all possible recording level adjustments on the tape deck (no option), IDT sound card control panel, Windows device manager, etc.
    From what I am reading on the online Audacity forums, using a mike input will cause the recording levels to be too high, and the setting has to be changed to "Line In" and not "microphone." Is there not a way to do that with this laptop and sound card?
    The HP Support Assistant tells me that the driver for my sound card is up-to-date.
    Thanks in advance for any help or suggestions. I've been trying to find a solution on my own for a couple days with no luck.

    Hi Amanda,
    Try the following.
    Download the IDT Audio installer on the link below and save it to your Downloads folder.
    http://ftp.hp.com/pub/softpaq/sp52501-53000/sp52658.exe
    When done, open windows Control Panel, open Device Manager and open up Sound, Video and Game Controllers.  Right click the IDT device and select Uninstall - you should also get a prompt to remove the current driver, tick the box to allow this and then proceed with the uninstall.
    When complete, shut down the notebook, unplug the AC Adapter and then remove the battery.  Hold down the Power button for 30 seconds.  Re-insert the battery and plug in the AC Adapter.
    Tap away at the esc key as you start the notebook to launch the Start-up Menu and then select f10 to enter the bios menu.  Press f5 to load the defaults ( this is sometimes f9, but the menu at the bottom will show the correct key ), use the arrow keys to select 'Yes' and hit enter.  Press f10 to save the setting and again use the arrow keys to select 'Yes' and hit enter.
    Let Windows fully load - it will automatically load an audio driver, but just let this complete.  Then open your Downloads folder, right click on the IDT installer and select 'Run as Administrator' to start the installation.  When this has completed, right click the speaker icon in the Taskbar and select Playback Devices.  Left click 'Speakers and Headphones' once to highlight it and then click the Set Default button - check if you now have audio.
    Regards,
    DP-K
