Hi all,

My audio output jack from the case is not working, and I suspect that I've put the wrong cable (attaching the audio output on the MOBO); instead of AC97, I've put the HD sound or whatever...
They both had the same pins and were on the same cable, but will this be it?

Get out your motherboard manual. See if its HD or AC97. Find the appropriate cable that runs from the case jacks (they will probably have little flag labels) and plug one of them in. If you plugged in the wrong one then yes, that would be the problem.

All it says:

S/Pdif-out connector

This connector is used to connect s pdif interface for digital audio transmission.
Nothing about AC97 and stuff.

OK, the case is coolermaster elite 330:
MObo is MSI 770 -C45 AM3.

Any people able to help with the problem? How can I get the audio output from the front panel???

They are both for the audio. The HD audio is only for mobo's that support it. It doesn't look like that board supports the HD audio. Unplug it and plug in the AC97.

So, is the sound working or not working from the back? I'm confused....

Srry, my bad, I was supposed to say front panel. Rear is working (one out of 6 audio jack ports).

Make sure it's plugged into the FP audio port on the board.

Check the device manager to see if there is a conflict on your audio device.

The thing is, the AC97 connector (from the case) is conected to the M/B FP audio port.
And under device manager, the FP audio port is not recognised...

It won't show up with that name. It's included with your onboard audio devices. Is there anything in the device manager that has a conflict (yellow !) next to it?

Double check the volume control to make sure it's not muted.

Nope, absolutely no yellow signs in device manager...

Make sure it's enabled in the BIOS
