Driver needed for Unimodem Half-Duplex Audio Device ( I think)

Hi

I appear not to have sound on my newly rebuilt p.c. (at least that's what the kiddies say)

And I am wondering if it is for the need of a driver.

Under Device Manager
Other devices has a big yellow question mark
Multimedia audio controller has a big yellow question mark
USB Device has a big yellow question mark

I have downloaded Belarc Advisor and run it:


Operating System System Model

I also had a look at a few of the responses found to my lack of sound. In one of your threads previously I found the following:

Need a little more information, what is the make and model number of you computer, or if custom built what is the motherboards make.
Look again at device Manager under Sound, video and game controllers, expand and look for a listing that just gives sound, if we can identify the sound device we can get an updated driver.

When I look under 'Sound, video and game controllers' I dont find a listing that just gives sound. In fact none of the listings mention the word sound.

Can some nice person help me get the sound going. Thanks

Hi, Did you load the drivers that should have come with the Mother Board?

Yesterday I updated Winamp from 2.9 to 5.3 (or whatever) and then I was going through my computer and uninstalling old games (like WC2, WOW, Oblivion, etc) and I found that at the end of it though I got 20 gigs freed up, my sound had disappeared.

Ive been trying to figure out how to fix it, and I thought that I had a sound card on my computer but nothing seems to confirm my thought. When I try to run winamp it gives me a "Bad Directsound Driver.... Error Code 8878000A"

Ive got my original installation disks (windows xp CDs and my dell resource CDs) and Ive tried to run them with device manager but it won't find the proper drives for the Unimodem Half-Duplex Sound Device that it reads me as having.

Set a System Restore Point before installing just in case

If that is your Belarc report here is a link to your Dimension 4600 http://support.euro.dell.com/support...os=WW1&osl=EN#

the onboard sound is the ADI 198x the others are sound cards, but your report does not show a sound card. It is most likley the ADI 198x

Hope this helps

Unhappy

I tried the Analog Devices ADI 198x Integrated Audio driver that I was pointed at, and when the SoundMAX InstallShield runs it gives an error stating

Quote:
Installation Failed!

The audio driver files do not support your computer hardware. Note: If you uninstalled audio software without restarting your PC, restart now, then run this setup again.

And no luck after restarting either.

Download and intsall the correct driver for your sound hardware from the manufacturer's website. Incorrect or wrong driver will not install in any way. It will end up giving an error.

Set a System Restore Point before installing just in case

Your serial number gives a Gateway 500X

Go here to Gateway http://support.gateway.com/support/d...s=Windows%20XP

your audio driver SoundMax is there


Hope this helps

Set a System Restore Point before installing just in case

This is the link to your Gateway 500S /Serial number 0029953874 computer
http://support.gateway.com/support/d...s=Windows%20XP

2 sound drivers, if your radio jacks are near your mouse and keyboard sockets, you need the SoundMax driver. If they are lower down the tower you have a sound card so you need the Soundblaster driver.

Hope this helps
