ok, I just replaced my neighbors motherboard because it died. He had a gigabyte 7zx-1, we replaced it with a matsonic 8127c. Both boards have the ac97 sound-chip. When we installed the new board, the sound doesn't work. I can't get the volume-control to show up in the system tray, and the audio properties in the control panel show no playback device. I've loaded all the drivers I can find for ac97, removed everything from safe-mode device manager, nothing is working. I put in another hd with a fresh install of me and it is working fine...is there any way to make this work without formatting his drive & reinstalling windows (he has windows me).

Thanks for any help

sounds like the audio is disabled in either the bios or on the board itself. check manual for audio jumper settings, then check bios.
