Hi everyone,

I've installed a new 4 channel Intex PCI sound card which is recognised
by the windows as "Yamaha DS-XG Audio(WDM)". The problem I am facing is
that, I am unable to play the midi files anymore. I dont get any sound
when I play the midi files on Windows Media Player. In the Sound and
Audio device properties, I am unable to select any default device for
MIDI music playback. There are currently 3 options available in the
drop-down box. Those are:

1.Yamaha XG Soft synthesizer
2.Microsoft GS Wavetable SW Synth
3.Yamaha DS-XG Soft synthesizer (WDM)

Whenever I try to select one of these options and click apply, the
options disappears and the default device shows up as blank. I tried
all the possible options but nothing seems to work. I was wondering
hoping to find help here. Thanks in advance.

It is just about impossible to find out any useful information on Intex
sound cards. I suspect that Windows installed the wrong driver but Intex
does not post drivers for their sound cards.

http://www.intextechnologies.com/download.asp
Use the info here to request the correct driver or at least get support.
 
The problem is more with the inability to select any midi device as a
default device in the Sound and audio device properties of the control
panel. I hope I am being clear. Actually, I installed the drivers from
the cd that came with the sound card. So I guess it is not the issue of
the drivers.

Also I forgot to mention that I had an aureal vortex sound card earlier
and I had not taken the trouble to uninstall those drivers before I
installed this sound card. Could that be an issue?
