 |
|
Hi,
recently I swapt my old motherboard (Asus A7N8X)for a newer one - MSI.
My Audiophile 2496 soundcard does not work anymore. Its not broken as it works all right on another PC, but placed in my computer it only produces a constant hum. I already reinstalled the drivers and tried different audiocodecs...my guess is that its the motherboard and its drivers that caused the problem but I'm not good at computers myself...
Do you have any ideas what that could be?

Could be that the slot you have the card in is sharing an IRQ with something like the Graphics card, so try the sound card in a different slot.
or
If the Mother Board has an on-board sound card, try disabling it in the BIOS.
That's all I can think of at the moment.
Regards.
Sharp. |

You don't need a fancy graphics card to run windows 7. your existing one should be fine.
and as for compatibility, as long as your motherboard has the right slot, then any card of that type is compatible. it is the operating system that is usually the problem for cards - if it is an older card you might not be able to get drivers for a newer operating system.
so, I looked up your motherboard, it does have a PCI Express x16 slot. You plug the card in there. You probably have to enable PCI graphics mode or set it to use the PCI slot card rather than the built in graphics adaptor. That kind of configuration will be a setting in the BIOS. if you see no graphics from the card, then plug your cable into the on-board socket until you have set the BIOS settings and rebooted.
I would like to point out, that this is your first post. I assume you joined this forum purely to ask this question.
These forums are for users of KORG keyboard/synthesizer (musical instrument) products. Not a computing forum. If you have questions in the future, you might get better answers somewhere else.
You are lucky though because I am a computer professional.
