Hi All i'm new to the forums i am having a major problem with the sound on my computer, i have been reading other posts to see if it may help but as it stands nothing really works, the computer was built by by a computer technician couple yrs ago but the problem is i just recently formatted my desktop computer with a windows xp CD and now there is no sound. in the device manager there is a yellow question mark next to "multimedia audio controller" and it says "The drivers for this device are not installed. (Code 28)". i have tried windows update and still no success, i have downloaded everest and another software called belarc advisor here is the report from both:

Welcome to Windrivers Pwnxor

here is your sound driver (http://global.msi.com.tw/index.php?func=downloaddetail&type=driver&maincat_no=1&prod_no=540) click the link scroll down the page till you come to Realtek ALC Series AC97 Driver and down load it to a folder you can find. Then double click the file and follow the wizard to install it.

[Pwnxor]

DUDE you arethe COOLEST!!!!! tnx a million!!!!!

[DonJ]

That DUDE is a gal. But I'm sure she appreciates your thanx just the same.

And yes, she's the COOLEST!

[NooNoo]

Your Welcome :)

[Pwnxor]

LMAO my bad.. i totally did not mean to offend, and another problem i am having now is that i am not able to hear any sound on youtube and any other site for that matter and applications such as messenger and skype are still without sound but i can play my music in itunes perfectly >_>.. this is also a bit off topic but i am also having a problem with my video controller (VGA compatible) , i get the same error that i got with the sound driver [The drivers for this device are not installed. (Code 28)] could you help with this also? and do you think that this is the reason i am not able to hear sound on messenger and such?

[NooNoo]

No offense taken, for some reason people feel duty bound to point out that I am female... it doesn't worry me.. in fact I prefer if people appreciate the fix rather than the gender :)

As for your vga problem, go back to the link, the vga drivers are there but install the System Drivers first! Reboot then do the vga drivers.

On the sound thing, usually if one thing works, it all works.. just a matter of settings. You might want to reinstall directX (http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?familyid=2da43d38-db71-4c1b-bc6a-9b6652cd92a3&displaylang=en)

[Pwnxor]

i keep getting this error message when i try to install the vga drivers ... "the system cannot detect the device, please confirm that the device is configured properly and then restart the setup program"

wow this is annoying >_>... and still no sound on youtube and such after re-installing directx 10.. >_<

and now i see an SM BUS controller with the question mark in device manager T_T.. i need a new computer .. lol

[NooNoo]

Did you install the system drivers first?

[Pwnxor]

Did you install the system drivers first?

yes i did, there are two system drivers on the site and i downloaded both but the one that says "SiS® 650/650GL/651/661FX/740/761GX/67x System Drivers" tells me that it is either damaged or in an unknown format when i try to extract it.. the other file "SiS System Drivers (650/651)" installs and runs perfectly..


i have finally got the sound working on youtube and such ..woot!! i had to set the default sound option.. but still no luck with the vga... >_>

[NooNoo]

The system drivers should have installed the smbus device. Try opening that and updating the driver and allow windows to install it automatically. Did you redownload the corrupt one and try again?

[CCT]

The '650/651' is the OLD 2006 chipset. The other is the NEWER one. Don't bother with the 2006 version.

[Pwnxor]

The system drivers should have installed the smbus device. Try opening that and updating the driver and allow windows to install it automatically. Did you redownload the corrupt one and try again?

yea i did thats what i did and then i installed it but still no success >_>

[NooNoo]

There are two versions of your motherboard try the drivers on the other version here (http://global.msi.com.tw/index.php?func=downloaddetail&type=driver&maincat_no=1&prod_no=539)

[Pwnxor]

still no luck with the vga.. tnx for the help tho.. but i think i give up for now atleast lol.

[NooNoo]

Have you tried the autoupdater (http://global.msi.com.tw/index.php?func=downloadindex) at MSI?

What do you mean no luck... exactly what happens when you try to install the vga driver?
