I must tell you first off that I am not very familiar with NT, however it is the OS of choice for the older systems in our office. With that said, I am having an issue trying to get the sound to work in this system.
the board of this older HP Vectra VL8 has onboard sound but with it turned on in the bios and then installed in the OS it says "Driver is installed but not turned on" in the multimedia "devices" tab in the control panel. So since i couldn't get it to work I decided to try a pci card for sound, figuring that going around the onboard would be the best way to make it work. So i installed the card, ran through the installation from the disk provided but now in the control panel multimedia section it shows "no devides in this category are installed". Can someone tell me if I am missing something here?
Any help is greatly appreciated.
