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 on-board
CDIN1 connector in the M/B is not connected. See manual for location of
CDIN1.
The sound from my sound card is distorted when Windows start. What
is wrong?
If you are using an ISA sound card, please make sure the IRQ needed for the
sound card is set to 'Legacy ISA' in the bios. In other word, if your ISA
sound card takes IRQ5, then set IRQ5 to 'Legacy ISA'.
The sound and everything else works fine except that the recorder and
microphone do not work. What is wrong?
1. Please go to sound properties and check if the recorder and
microphone in the are enabled.
2. Check if Microphone is ok.
Hard disk/FDD/ CD-ROM issue
My Western digital HDD is not detected during boot-up.
Change the jumper settings to cable select or single.
Sometimes the system finds my CD-ROM, sometimes not.
1. Check CD-ROM if it is working properly.
2. The power supply might not have enough wattage to support all the
peripherals. If your system has other peripherals connected, like
CD-RW, extra HDD, etc. disconnect them.
When I boot up my new computer, I got "floppy boot failure" and the
LED on the floppy stays on
.
Make sure the red wire of floppy ribbon cable goes to Pin1 on the floppy
drive side (don't trust the "key lock" or "notch") and use the end-connector
of the cable (don't use middle one).
