Ok, lets check

Audio enabled in the BIOS, drivers from Asus downloaded, C-media shows in Device Manager. I think it's the Asus drivers that are a problem, checked Asus manual C-Media CMI9880L is your audio, now go here for the driver
http://www.download.com/C-Media-CMI9...-10518831.html

this site is safe, it's a Winzip file, now what I do is create a Folder to download the file to name it CMI9880L audio , then I create another Folder and name it CMI9880L unzipped.

When unzipping the file Winzip will choose it's own location, select a different location and useing the tree list navigate to the Folder you created for the unzipped files.

Then I go to Device Manager and what is yellow flagged I point to the Folder I unzipped the files to.

Sony give a good instruction see below

1. Expand "Sound, video and game controllers" or click on yellow flagged device
2. Right-click the the yellow flagged device and choose Update Driver
3. In Windows XP SP2, the Update Wizard will prompt to connect to the Windows Update
4. Select "No, not this time" and click Next
5. Select "Install from a list or specific location (Advanced)" and click Next.
6. Select "Search for the best driver in theses locations" and check "Include this location in the search"
7. Click Browse and select the the location of downloaded driver
8. Click OK and click Next
9. Wait while the Wizard installs the software
10. Click Finish.

Hope this helps
