it says the Multimedia Audio Controller is the only thing not working properly. i've installed and reinstalled everything you've helped me with thus far.

i REALLY love you for all your help!

Ok start again, first Are your audio plugs on the I/O plate or in a expansion slot, see here, click image to focus http://www.overclockeddoc.com/bookwo...0io%20slot.JPG

check these out

Go to Control Panel / Sound & Audio Devices / Audio tab / Sound Playback – click on down arrow and check that the correct audio is selected. Typically the problem will be something “modem line 0 playback” has been substituted for the correct audio device.


Start / Control Panel / Administrative Tools / Component Services / a separate window will open – in left pane click Services(Local) / Scroll down to Windows Audio service / if the service is Disabled or Manual right click > select Properties > under Startup Type change to Automatic > click Apply > click Start > Reboot.

let me know 3 years is a long time, do you get any messages when you try to install, Soundmax can be a pain, may need to force M$ to use the driver
