Thx, tried again with new bios and drivers but no success :( I've found another pair of giga x38 owners with red light on, but still the number of the ones with no light is greater...so not all the boards are defective, but I'm pretty sure the number of the non working ones is big. It can't...

I didn't know which audio chipset mounted the gigabyte N680SLI mainboards, but I'm sure lot of P35 models (for example the P35-dq6 or the P35-DS4) have the same chip alc889a and they work without problems. I'm not claiming it's a problem of the particular audio chipset, I'm saying that a large...

I know that on other gigabyte models red light is normally on and perfectly working, on the P35 series too. If I found my x38 dq6 and other 15-20 owners with same trouble getting optical out to work I suppose there's something wrong with this particular model, even though the audio chipset is...

sorry, double post

JASTECH is the first I ear that has the red light on. RMA for another fault mb? everyone I know have that light off (I mean 10-20 owners)...mainboard now is under testing on the most important italian hardware reviewer site, I asked them to verify the optical thing and they will do it.

Yes, I know how to enable digital output...and with a digital coaxial cable it works! I have the dts signal on my decoder when I connect it to the coaxial output, but if I switch to the spdif optical connection the decoder doesn't recognize any signal, and there's still the light off. Spdif...

In the bios there's nothing to play with, azalea HD is turned on, in the driver I'm sure digital output is working but I can't find anything to change input/output direction of the two ports. I suppose both work in output direction...in the package of the mb there's an optional staff to add if...

I hope there's another one using the onboard audio that reads this thread...I don't know if it's my mb fault or a more general problem, that's what I need to understand. Meanwhile I'll send another mail to giga global support.

Do you have the red light in your own mainboard? is it a giga x38 dq6? cause I've asked a pair of other owners of this MB and both have the light off, even if digital output is enabled via drivers. If I enable digital output coaxial out works but not optical link, where light remain alwais off...

I'm searching an answer for this: Original thread here: http://forums.anandtech.com/me...=2118124&enterthread=y

Installed my new gigabyte x38 dq6 just yesterday and I came to this serious trouble: spdif out digital output desn't work. Drivers seems to be installed properly, everithing works: analog connectors, digital output and dts capabilities too but only if I use the coaxial connection. I'm sure...
