Trouble with headphones and wireless card
Hi all, Recently I purchased a new system for myself (hurrah for tax returns) and so far, it's a pretty nice system. It runs Vista, obviously, and I've encountered a pair of problems. One major, one minor. First, the major problem is that it doesn't seem to want to install my wireless card. I'm using a ZoNet 802.11g Wireless LAN PCI adapter, and I swear, I've tried everything. The manufacturer's FAQ tells me to NOT install from the disk, that Vista will do it automatically... but that didn't happen. I tried installing from the disk after that... that also didn't help. Downloaded drivers on this machine and networked them to the new one... ALSO didn't work. I know the card itself works, since I'm using it right now. I know the PCI slot is good, I've tested. The issue is there are no drivers and when there are, Vista refuses to find them. Since I need to have internet on the thing to register Vista, it's proving to be a bit of a headache. Second, less important issue... I can't get my headphones to work. Whether I use the front or back jacks, no matter the setting that ReakTek Audio Manager is on. I had sound, briefly, until the audio manager decided to "help" lol. I'm really at a loss as to what to do right now. Any help would be appreciated.
