I just finished building my first system, all went fairly smooth except for my sound problem i have none.
I loaded the drivers for the ac97 Via PCI Controller and device manager reports no problems but in Control panel >multimedia everything is greyed out and no speaker icon in the taskbar either.
Everything seems ok in the bios ,sound is enabled but when i load windows it detects new hardware ( PCI communications device)but i cannot find a driver for it and it has an exclamation mark next to it in device manager under Other.
I tried Add/remove programs with win98 se disk and installed all components for multimedia and still no sound.
To say the least i am frustrated .
Any info on how to fix this will be greatly appreciated!
System specs: 950 Duron>128meg ram>10 gig hd>win98 SE> Abit MoBo kt20 with onboard AC97
