I just recently built a new comp using the Abit KN8 SLI moBo with integrated sound. I've installed the drivers and all and the computer recognizes a sound device, but when pluggin in headphones or speakers, no sound produces... what can be wrong?
Doublecheck the main volume settings in sounds and audio device in the control panel and make sure none of the mute checkboxes are checked. Also while you are there check under the advanced controls tab and make sure that the digital only box isn't checked (I am assuming your using only the analog connections and not the optical out connection).
