Sound not working even though there are no conflicts
This is a discussion about Sound not working even though there are no conflicts in the Windows Hardware category; I am using an I/O Magicwave PCI soundcard (I believe this uses that Aureal Vortex 1 chip). The drivers are installed and device manager shows no conflicts. Yet, I don't get any sound. It was working fine just an hour before when I was still on Windows 98, and I didn't mess with the speakers or anything.

(I have since switched back to W98 until I know how to fix it, and yes, the sound still works fine in W98)
Thank you!

Responses to this topic
have you checked the hardware compability page to see what is says about that sound card and its functionality with windows 2000 ? are you using WDM drivers or NT drivers are supplied with your card ?

OP
It's supposed to work fine, and I was using the WDM drivers. In case this problem is 'unsolvable', can you recommend a good, affordable sound card that works fine in Win 2K? Thanks!

I have SB PCI 128. Works fine, cheap (l<20$), but no 3D sound under Win2k (I mean under Win98, I had 4 way speakers : frontleft, frontright, rearleft, rearright but oinly front left frontright with Win2k).
Awx
