The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

On-board Sound not working - ASUS MOBO

Asked by cboggan in Computer Motherboards, Computer Sound Cards, Windows XP Operating System

Tags: sound, card, asus, onboard

Hey guys I have run out of time to do any more trouble shooting on this system. I have a system that the sound is not working on. Let me tell you what I've done so far and what my system comprises of. I guess I'm having a senior moment being I can't think of what else my problem might be.

System:
Motherboard - ASUS P5QPL-AM - New in this system for only 2 weeks.
On-board Sound
Windows XP Pro SP3
2GB RAM

What I've checked or tried:
- Checked for mute. Mute not checked
- Made sure speakers were actually working on a known working computer. Speakers OK
- Uninstalled sound from Device Manager, rebooted to let system reconfigure sound. Did not correct issue.
- Downloaded updated drivers from ASUS and installed them. Did not correct the issue.
- Volume checked. Volume OK
- Checked for more than one sound device. This is the only one that exist hardware and software. Software meaning in the Default device sound playback there is only one choice.

What I have not done:
- Have not installed a cheap sound card to be certain that the ports on this new motherboard are not bad. I do not have a spare card to try it.

I am out of time to troubleshoot and I fear the sound port might be bad but thought I'd ask for something I may not have thought of to try before spending anymore $$$ on it.

Do note this is a second motherboard since the first one several years old died. Also the previous motherboard was not an ASUS but an MSI.
