Hey all,
I'm having problems with my sound, its an on-board card and since I re-installed Windows XP home on my machine it isn't able to find a driver for it.

I purchased this motherboard on ebuyer a while ago, I hope this helps somehow. If you could advise me on what to do and a possible fix, it would be much appreciated.

Many Thanks, Ben

Two things...

You can download the reference drivers...

Or you can download Asus specific drivers...

I would personally go with the Asus drivers because they are specifically tested with your motherboard....but if they don't work then try the VIA ones as they are more "universal"...

Good luck...
