I know it is my board, meaning the hardware manufacturer, that is doing this. The installation cd for the integrated sound card states that the current operating system is not supported, which to me makes sense because this hardware came out before windows 7 existed.
Any documentation is in storage and not accessable. I have looked inside at the motherboard and can't seem to find any useful information pertaining to the make of it.. I never went through with any of the driver utility programs because my model was not listed.
The issues that everyone else seems to have is with no sound coming from their sound cards after installing windows 7, not just isolated to my sound card. I have a hard time believing that I am forever screwed with no sound from my computer because of my hardware not supported under windows 7. There has to be a fix out there. I realize that I should have found it by now but cannot which is what brought me to this forum. Someone has to know and can help me.
You are not 'forever screwed' - you can always purchase and install a sound card whose manufacturer supports their product under Windows 7 - the operating system you are choosing to run. The trick is to have a supported (by its manufacturer) piece of hardware or software - *under the operating system you are choosing to run*.
If you are looking for a32g-a32gv11c motherboard website, just click link below. All drivers are tested using antivirus software and 100%. May 24, 2008 I reformat again with Windows 7 and the same thing happened. No audio driver. I also tried to install the driver from motherboard's CD. Still it didn't work. Till I decided to reformat using Windows XP. Finally, the audio works when I installed the driver software of the motherboard. Simply Means Windows 7 can't support the audio of this old model.
Yep - you may have had that old Ford Mustang you bought that nitrous kit for... But now that you have that newer Ford Mustang - that nitrous kit may not work.
Your only true solution: get a piece of hardware - audio device - that is supported under Windows 7 by its manufacturer. Anything else you do is playing with fire, may or may not work and even if it does not work, might be broken by the next patch or update. If you have an available PCI or PCIe slot, find a cheap sound card (trust me - the one you had would have qualified as cheap) and throw it in. 15 USD and up I would guess.
