Audio issues
Hey all, I posted this in the "Music, Pictures, and Video" section, but it
might be more relavent here. My current audio setup is as follows: -Vista RC2 build 5744 running on a Dell Inspiron 9300 laptop. -Onboard audio is a SigmaTel C-Major Audio device with driver version 5.10.4469.0 from SigmaTel. -USB audio is provided by a C-Media device running XEAR 3D, EAX 2.0 and driver version 5.12.01.0042.7 (62.2). Both drivers appear to be up to date and the devices are more or less functional. I have two issues. First, when using the headphone jack on the SigmaTel device, I have no output. Second, when I use 5.1 speakers with the C-Media device, Vista's Speaker Setup wizard only registers them as stereo, even though the C-Media program registers them as 5.1. I have no surround sound output (steroe only) in WMP11 or Zoom Player Professional (my video/dvd software of choice). Has anyone else had either of these issues before? Can I still submit bug reports this late in the game? Thanks for the help. |

Same here, "Unsupported Standard Game Port". I also have this 'unknown
device' which I'm guessing is either video or audio related. [I have RC1] I haven't tried any DVD's, but I'm trying to get my 'line in' functioning for the purpose of recording from my TV Card -- Which I finally got working except for the inability to record sound from the soundmax (on board) sound. I am about to install a secondary sound card to see if that cures it (it is all working under XP) There appears to be many forums out there (when searching google) - re audio issues with Vista. ----------------------------- "Billmc" wrote in message ... using windows vista upgrade advisor, had no issues with sound card, (soundmax) windows sounds are ok, playing cd's ok, but no sound playing dvd's, (in any program) but noticed in devices, game port is unsupported?, is that my problem, i don't yet know.

Audio handling has been significantly changed in Vista.
