WTH did you update the bios. Sometimes due the bios, the drivers find compablility issue. I have not updated my BIOS for 2 years till now.

dont know how but its working now, i just updated all utilities from gigabyte website , crapy cd contains all old softwares

if someone have same problem like this , maybe
Microsoft UAA Bus Driver for High Definition Audio is not working in SP3 , then here is the fix


the steps:
Download this software : kb888111xp2.exe
Open Regedit and go to :
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Contro l\Windows
Find CSDVersion Key
Legend:
100 (hex) means its SP1
200 (hex) means its SP2
300 (hex) means its SP3

Change CSDVersion from 300 to 200 and Restart
Install kb888111xp2.exe (Microsoft UAA Patch)
Change CSDVersion back to 300.
Restart
Install device drivers
Enjoy


Thanks for replying
