Sit in silence. Write to Intel and complain.

Hi

The XP drivers of SoundMAX DOES work on vista Beta 2

from chris
 
Vista loaded its own drivers for Soundmax but there are problems widely
reported with Soundmax and onboard sound. In my case I can't access speech
recognition and if I click on microphone properties the system crashes.
Solution, get a decent sound card and disable onboard sound.

Bugs I have....

In Microplanet Gravity, I get a "beep" everytime I click on a thread
title.

When I update the drivers, they don't work.

BUT if I use my Audigy2ZS then due to the immaturity of the drivers, I
get one hell of a performance hit in games.

Appropriate reports filed and I'll stick with the onboard until
Creative release the next set of drivers.
 
Chris I am ready to install my Beta 2. I also have Soundmax integration on an
ASUS chipset VIA KM400. Do you think it will work?
 
Solution intergrated digatel audio

go to device manger, tab by the questionmark multimedia controller, tab
reinstall driver, choose search automatically for updated driver software.

It will install itself.

Goodluck
 
I also have an Intel D865GBF Motherboard with Analog Device audio controller
that uses SoundMax drivers. The device manager on my version on build 5472
does not esactly match the metaphor in your description. I cannot tab to
Multimedia Media Controller so I selected it. Similiarily there is no
"reinstall Driver" but there is a "Update Driver Software". I tried Update
Driver Softwarethe but Vista could not locate a compatable driver and
reports "Windows could not find driver softare for you device".

Any ideas?
 
I've since upgraded to Soundblaster but I did get Soundmax to work by going
into the program files and right-clicking each Soundmax .exe and clicking
"Run as Administrator" also run in XP compatibility mode.

I have a Intel d865perl, I tryed to install driver from intel website, it was
downloaded (the latest) but didn't work

I just did the solution recomended by inkiowny and the soundmax driver is
working fine.
 
Unfortunately, no Soundmax.exe files exist on my machine. Maybe 'coz I did a
"clean" install of Vista??
 
Device Manager doesn't show any multimedia controller. Only sound, video, and
game controllers. Under there, only Soundmax
