i have the same problem, but im not sure of teh specs of my motherboard - i think it is Mercury SIS746 AMD 8xAGP - because on the invoice for the computer it has (m/b) next to this, but if theres a surefire way for me to find out the specs please could sum1 tell me how to do it, thanks..i was using c-media ac97 on win98, but since upgradin to xp non of the xp drivers for this seem to work. and theres the microsoft kernel errors

each time i try to use regedit it vanishes after a few seconds of browsing.. any ideas why it does this?

Welcome to WD saintz .

Did you do a upgrade from 98 to XP ?

To find out more about your PC
download this and run it ;

and under 'Motherboard' and 'Devices' it will tell you lots ,
under 'Devices' you'll look for anything 'audio' and tell us what you find .

these should be the drivers for that board

Regedit closing is indicative of virus activity or spyware.
