Download once again from here, *downloadcenter.intel.com/Product_Filter.aspx?ProductID=2837&lang=eng

make sure you are downloading the proper driver... now as you have High Definition audio then if under Windows XP you will need the lastest Service pack (SP2) and KB888111 download it from here, *support.microsoft.com/kb/888111

if u r not able to hear any sound, den probably d Windows Audio service is disabled (dunno abt XP but in 2003 it is disabled by default)

enable it and put to Automatic

it can b done thru

Run->Services.msc
press enter and u will get d list of services

There are 2 ways for it...

1. Run Windows Auto Update from your PC... Windows will detect your Hardware and will provide you the patch... (Recomended)

2. If you are unable to run Auto update from the same PC then please contact microsoft using the given link to request and obtain the update (Note its free support)

wat is d exact problem u r facin?

is it giving u sum error message wen u try to play sum sound or is it that the media player being used shows that the track is being played but you r not able to hear any sound?

aslo remember that the line-out jack of the soundcard is green in color
u must put te jack in that socket to hear any sound

check the volume ctrl to ee if either Volume control or wave balance is not muted

if it is then u will not b able to hear the sound

Hi,
I too have the same Audio driver problem. My motherboard is Intel D945GCNL. The OS is Windows XP with SP2. I had downloaded the Realtek driver which was available in Intel website. Still the driver is not installed. In Device manager there is an yello exclamatory mark on the Audio Driver. Is there anyother batch which needs to be run? Please help me.

The driver install package from Intel only extracts the files for install. Once you browse to where the files were extracted, run the setup program. That will install the Realtek HD Audio Control panel, the HD audio driver and KB888111. Raviramgopal definitely found an issue. I assume that he is not using HD 5.1 speakers. If you go into the 'Windows' Audio Control panel, not Realtek's. Click properties and show front speaker you will notice the volume is turned all the way down. Crank it up and you will have sound with a 2-channel analog speaker system. Someone crossed their I's and dotted their T's somewhere along the way!:p

Solved the problem at last with the help of a Servicing personnel. After the OS is installed, once we are installing the Audio Driver, the found new hardware wizard pops up, press cancel for the wizard as the Driver CD will directly run a batch and then install the driver. If we continue with the wizard, the batch is not run and the driver will never get installed unless we reinstall the OS.

FunkyGarzon,
Once you install the OS , and install the audio drivers, there is a popup which comes and asks for the source of the driver. Never point to the CD. Just insert the cd and wait for sometime. the installer itself would go and take the path and install it. If you click browse and point the CD, the updates are installed first and the only way to get through that will be by reinstalling the OS. Please buzz me if you need any more clarification

Buddy,
I have the source files in the original cd. cd is in my home and I am working away from home. Best is to reinstall OS and insert the CD. Download the latest audio driver from Intel website and burn it in a cd dude. I dont see what is your problem in downloading it from Intel and burning it in a CD.
