My problem is the BIOS does not have an advanced option and nowhere in the tabs menus is any reference to enabling the sound.

I have checked and rechecked but there is definitely no option to be found

Any Ideas?

Hope you can help

Had a look at Ei Systems and 2 types of BIOS used Americam Megatrands Inc and Insyde, to access AMI you hit Del key Insyde the F2 key. Now i have AMI on one of my machines (retail board) and onboard sounds is listed under Features, but they have most likley been altered by EI systems, The Support site is The TechGuys ( can't post the link )


send an email requesting assistance ia enabeling onboard sound.

hope this helps
