hope this helps multimedia audio

Hi Everyone,
I Had The Same Problem With My Multimedia Audio Drv After I Formatted And Reloaded Windows, What I Found Out Was:

1: Go To Windowsupdate.microsoft.com And Update Your Windows

2: Go Back To your System And reload Multimedia Audio Drv By Going To Control Panel And Use system, then select hardware tab, then device manager, Right click the mutimedia audio drv, a dialog box should come up
then select properties

3: then select reinstall drv, select let it search for location, then select the windows update box

4: after it searches for new driver it should come up and say something to the effect that windows has found a better driver for your device
chk the little box then hit next you should see a list of drivers for your device, select the one from windowsupdate and finish following the instructions. (if a dialog box comes up and says there is no signature
load the drv anyways) the whole key is to load the drv from windowsupdate
once you have the correct drv loaded, Then Go To Control Panel And Select Sounds And Multimedia

5: Select Audio, In The Sound Playback Select The Device Which You Think Is Your Sound Card (trial And Error, common sense)

6: Sound Recording Shoud Be The Same Device

7: Select Sounds, Now Your Volume Control Should Work.

8: Select Apply Then Ok Then Exit Control Panel

9: You May Have To Reboot Your Computer And Hopefully It Works!

I hoped I explained it right its kind of hard to remember the steps
the main 2 things are loadIng the right driver and selecting the right device
in the sounds and multimedia icon, GOOD LUCK!

Unhappy Help =(

Hey guys..I hope someone can help me. I've searched so many forums in help to this situation. I'm having trouble with my speakers. I can not play any kind of audio file on my computer without an error message coming up saying that I don't have a audio driver installed. I looked through my device manager and noticed that there was a yellow ?! beside of my "Multimedia Audio Controller" but haven't had luck finding the driver to it. I have tried many times to download the driver from Averatec.com because that is what my computer is but no luck! Please someone help!! Here is my computer information from Belarc:

The E1200 is only shown on the UK site, and lists as a 3300, can you look over the comp and see if it gives any more details, I'm looking for the chipset driver but is not listed on the UK site.

Also get Everest copy and paste the My Computer/Summary section, it may give more clues. http://www.softpedia.com/get/System/...-Edition.shtml


Cheers
