sound in bios, where and how?

If the new MB doesn't have a built on soundcard, you need to buy one, most have at least a simple card built on the connections would look like a headphone jack where you put in the speaker connections. Otherwise you need to purchase a soundcard, Soundblaster brand is great.\n\nBut I would tend to think that the MB has sound inputs, if you are getting the message "No sound Device Found" it is either selected wrong in your "sound options in control panel" or there isn't one.

Make sure you are logged in as an administrator.\nThen go to Driverguide.com, you will need to register, but if you cant find your driver on there.. you wont find it anywhere.\n\nIf you have already downloaded the files (extracted all zip files).. Go into settings control panel, system, hardware, devicemanager.. then right click on the offending sound device.. and click update driver.. if it doesnt do it automatically, point it manually (brows for location) and see if it installs the drivers for you. Do you know what kind of mother board you have.. post it on here and someone might be able to give you an exact link to the drivers you need- since it seems your sound card is built in on the mother board.

You can go to your control panel and click on your "Sound and audio devices" icon doing so will get you the "Sound and audio devices Properties" in this window go to the Audio tab in the top and see if any thing is listed under the default device if there is nothing listed try clicking the drop down menu but if you see the menu has been disabled that mean your sound card driver have been corrupted. If your sound card is an internal sound card inbuilt on your mother board then try using your mother board CD and install the audio driver... I think this will work. \n\nBest Of luck

The front panel audio header on this motherboard is just below the rear audio jacks. Look for AUDIO1 or PANEL1, depending on the board revision, 2/3 of the way down the board near the back.\n\nYou can download a manual for the latest revision from:\nhttp://www.ecs.com.tw/ECSWeb/Downloads/ProductsDetail_Download.aspx?DetailID=436&DetailName=Manual&DetailDesc=P4VMM2(8.1)&MenuID=35&LanID=0

Open your control panel and double-click "system". Click on the hardware tab and then "Device manager". In Device manager, expand "Sound and video game controllers" to view your audio devices. Anything with a big yellow question mark by it needs a driver.\nIf you have onboard audio you will find the driver on the disk that came with your motherboard. If you have a soundcard it will be on the disk for that.\nYou can search to find the drivers online, but make sure to get them from the manufacturor and not just some site with all kinds of drivers.

There should be a setting like that in your PC's BIOS.\nU can't change bios setting using .net\n\nNote: Assembly is the good programming language that change bios setting

To disable the onboard sound card, you have to go into your computer's BIOS before boot up.\n\nTo go into BIOS:\n1.  Reboot your computer\n2.  Watch what the screen says.  Most BIOSs will prompt you to press F2 for setup or one of the function keys.\n3.  Once you are in the BIOS, you will have to look for an option for settings or hardware and search through there until you find the sound card on or off.\n4.  Be careful not to change anything other than your sound card settings.  Changing settings in BIOS may have adverse affects.  When you do find your sound cards setting be sure and save those in your BIOS\n5.  Test your new settings by rebooting (without your new sound card) to see if your sound card works.\n\nInstalling the new sound card\n1.  How your computer recognizes the new sound card depends on your OS.  Windows XP and 2000 are plug n play.  This means that they will recognize the new hardware and prompt you to install.\n2.  If you are using Windows XP, it recognizes most popular brands of hardware.\n3.  Drivers - Newer versions of windows will detect your new hardware and prompt you for a drivers disk.  Follow the prompts.\n\nSound Card Documentation\nI would definitely consult with your sound card documentation.  They usually provide information as to how to install your hardware on the various operating systems.

try to put the sound card in other pci slots and check.(you should be having atleast 3(white ones not the single dark brown)\n\nit it doesnt work, clean the slots from dust using a vaccumm clearner and plug it in again. \n\nand finally enter bios setup  and disable the onboard sound.

you cannot format from the bios.. you need some raw formatting executives like fdisk, which are generally shiped with the hard drive or are available on their website.. do the same carefully cause a `low level format' requires care and doing the same too many times might cause problems on the same (bad sectors etc.)

Here is a site that has custom Bios and utilities for perfoming a Bios flash. There is a lot of useful information on the site. \n\nhttp://www.techpowerup.com/bios/

What is the last thing you had done before you lost the sound? Reinstall the sound drivers from your motherboard cd. See whether you have accidentally disabled the onboard sound from the BIOS settings, if disabled then enable that. If that does not help re format the HDD and reload the OS and the sound drivers. Above all fail then get a PCI sound card, push it in any PCI slot, disable the onboard sound card in BIOS and install the new card's drivers.

It is probably an AC97 audio driver. \n\nClick start Run, and type DXDIAG. This program gives more information about your sound card on the SOUND tab.\n\nAlternatively open the side of your PC and see what is printed on the sound chip (very small writing if it is part of the motherboard)\n\nIf you have sound then don't update the software!! If you don't try the PC manufacturers website and download the motherboard and sound drivers.

From the limited info you provide, I would suggest you install the drivers, if your mobo already has integrated sound, you will need to disable it in bios before an installed snd crd will function properly....hope this helps
