I reformatted and have no sounds drivers for the EPOX 8rda3+, the epox site never works and every other site mirrors directly. Please let me know if you know where to get these, or if anyone still runs this board and has a cd, etc.

Best Wishes,

Paul

wasn't the 8rda3+ sound C-media?
& as it's an NF2 quite probably the nVidia audio driver may work as well.

The realtek driver worked! I don't know what I would do without anandtech.

However, I can't get 5.1 from the optical output to work - it will only play stereo. Any ideas there?

Regards,

Paul

Check the Epox site, it works a little, just you can't download from their FTP.

I haven't a clue. Just double-check all driver settings and make sure it's all setup correctly, might of missed something by chance.

Interesting, several reviews seem to confirm my recollection of the 8RDA3+ having C-Media but their downloads section lists C-Media & Realtek audio drivers plus nVidia unified (which should also include an audio driver) ... :confused:
