Asound CMI8738

I have been downloading drivers for this sound card all evening and none of them have worked at all... They are all definitly for the correct model.

By any chance would anyone else have the same sound card? Anyone help? :confused:

Anyone any ideas at all?

Downloaded drivers from around 20 sites now and none of them will work even though they are for the correct model :mad:

Using that link, its the first time the Asound site has worked and its very slow :mad:

Thanks for that, hopefully this will work!

I have got the proper drivers for the card from the website however these won't work either.

I get a message a long the lines of 'This computer is not equipped with one of our chips' so it won't install drivers.

Device manager is finding the card though....

Tried that aswell and says its not the right software.

I have just noticed that if I turn the onboard sound of via the bios the PCI card dissappears from the device manager, then comes back when internal sound is on..... :confused:

Tried a different pci slot then disabled onboard sound and the same thing happens, card disappears from device manager.

I also have another thread about the sound drivers - the machine is a Dell. All drivers seem to be installed ok for the sound in device manager (Legacy Audio Drivers).

However when I click that there is nothing to remove / update. The dell audio software won't work either.
