I just bought a K7S5A and am having a problem with the Audio97 Codec. Initially, the drivers would not install. I kept getting a "Fail to copy SNDSYS.INF" error. I *THINK* I got around that and installed the drivers but it's still not working. It's got an Exclamation next to it in Device Manager and is currently non-operational. I couldn't find any conflicts in Device Manager, though.
The worst part is that some of my programs won't run AT ALL without it. I keep getting told that my sound hardware is missing and the programs just dump out.
Does anyone know to resolve this? I have been able to find VERY little information on the web regarding problems with the AC97, so I'm not sure where else to turn.
Stick E. Mouse, you answered a previous poster's questions regarding K7S5A problems pretty quickly so I thought you might be able to help me. Please? =o)
Oh, and before anyone else says it, Yes I am aware that the AC'97 is a POS. However, having just shelled out $500 for a new motherboard, an Athlon 1.4 cpu, 256 DDR Ram, and a GeForce3, I won't be able to afford a Philips A.E. for another few weeks and I'd like to have an operational system during that wait. =o)
