RealTek Sound

[saurabh.sauron]

I have a polk audio speaker that is approximately 8 years old. i upgraded my system and added a 945 motherboard, which comes with realtek hd audio driver. since then, sound is very low and i am barely able to hear. there is no defect with the speaker as connecting with an ipod, it works perfectly. what can be the problem?
pls help
thnx

realteak audio shud be turned on b4 using to enable it..........

r u sure it is turned on???????

if yes check "Environment" in "Sound Effect" tab

or check mixers in "mixer" tab......to make sure wave bar is high...........

n lastly in "Audio I/O" check ur speaker system

[saurabh.sauron]

everything seems to be ok. i am using highest posiible settings and still sound is so feeble that i can barely hear.

[s18000rpm]

most basic, double click the "speaker" icon in task bar.
& check whether all volume are at high.



-----------

goto control panel >> sounds, speech & audio devices >> sound & audio device >>configure the setup / follow the pictorial

have u turned on the voice cancellation or what???After all this did u checked out for the wires… if it is not crushed or whatever???

[saurabh.sauron]

checked up everything (it works perfectly with the ipod)...i think the problem lies in compatibility with the HD Audio

[Sooraj_digit]

i guess compatibility shouldnt be making nuiances like this may be the alingment of the stereo pin of your speaker has different layout since it is a old one....

thn check weather ur media player is redirecting it through realtek or not......

or else borrow a speaker set frm sum1 check it on ur PC.........if it works f9.....thn thr is sumthng wrong iwid ur speakers or check the wires of ur speakers...........
