Hello all! I've been reading these forums for two hours trying to find someone with the same Belarc stats as me so I didnt have to bother you guys with the 5000th question. Big surprise, I have no sound and the computer is not recognizing my audio card. It's part of my motherboard.

Here are my Belarc stats:
Operating System System Model

Please help... I halfway understand what is going on here, but not enough to do this without help. I think I may need to download the chipset and then the drivers? I will be eternally grateful....

According to the motherboard make/model in your post, you need the "Realtek ALC Series AC97 Audio Driver", available from MSI on this page (third item down): http://www.msi.com.tw/program/suppor...UID=631&kind=1

Make sure you choose the correct one for your version of Windows from the three that are offered.
