speaker problem!!!!!!

comp builder · 2 Jun 2006 at 10:14

Hi i built my own comp on tuesday i used a "ASUS A8R-MVP crossfire ready" motherboard. I put in my graphics card etc and everything works fine apart from my "Creative SBS260 2.0 Speakers" i plugged the green lead into the green jack on my motherboard and i plugged in the power supply and turned on the speakers. Then when i used the disc that came with my motherboard to install the audio drivers it said the driver files arn't compatible with my computer hardware.
(the motherboard has on board sound if you havnt already worked it out yourself)
thanks

hi i downloaded the right driver but it says excatly the same as the one i have on disc (that came with the motherboard)
it said
installation failed, the audio drivers do not support your computers hardware
Note:if you uninstalled audio software without restarting your pc, restart now, then run this setup again
someone please help me this is really starting to p*** me off lol

dont take it all apart just yet dude,

i would take it in as a whole system first,

could still be something hidden in the bios you may have missed.

we've all dont it before

hi i have asked them if i can take the whole system in but they said i can't because if they test it and somthing blows up then they are liable to replace it so no luck there unfortunatly
thanks
