Which audio driver?

Hi all,

I have a XFX nForce 630i mobo which apparently has an 8 channel HD audio chip in it made by Realtek. I have downloaded and installed WDM_R191.exe, and this seems to work ok - until i reboot the machine and it redetects it. Also - the sound doesn't work.

Which audio driver should i be downloading for this mobo?

EDIT - If it matters I'm running it through HDMI to s Sony v3000 LCD

The audio outputs via the 3.5mm connectors and not through the video card.

But surely it should output through the HDMI???

Don't think so. What video card do you have?

There is an all-in-one package on the CFC website, but that failed at installing both the Soundcard AND the gigabit ethernet, so i had to install the ethernet separetely

Do you think it could be the BIOS just needs updating?

I see that the board has HD audio but no mention that it then outputs this via the HDMI connector.
