The audio cable is plugged on to the M/B the wrong way. Flip it around and
the problem should be solve.
How can I disable the on-board Audio ?
Set the "Onboard 6Ch H/W Audio" option in the BIOS to disable this option
can be found under SOYO COMBO Feature.
In Device Manager, I keep getting yellow exclamation signs on my
sound port even though I have installed my sound driver several times
and I could not get my sound card to work. What is wrong?
It is likely that you did not have the correct driver installed. If you are sure
that the correct sound driver has been installed, then please install the 'VIA
4 in 1' driver for the motherboard.
The sound is working in my system, but when I play CD music from
the CD-ROM, I do not get any sound. What is wrong?
This is because the 3-wire audio cable from the CD-ROM to the sound
card is not connected or it is loose.
The sound and everything else works fine except that the recorder and
microphone do not work. What is wrong?
This is because the recorder and microphone in the Windows are not
enabled. Please go to sound properties and enable them.
Lock up (freeze)
When I boot up my system, everything works fine. It sees my CPU and
memory, detects my hard drive, floppy drive and CD-ROM but locks
up at "Verify DMI pool data... ", and it won’t go any further. What
should I do?
Please clear the CMOS via JP5 then choose 'load optimized default' in the
bios and save the bios and exit. Next, unplug all other add-on cards except
the video card and floppy drive controller, and see if it can boot from
floppy. Then put back the peripherals one by one to identify which one
causes the lockup.
