Hi,

I am unable to install ac 97 realtek audio driver in my system(Windows XP).

Earlier i tried to install Realtek Audio Driver in Windows XP which gave me error(Install Realtek HD Audio Driver Failure !!). Then i tried to install ac 97 realtek audio driver.

The audio driver got installed in my system but sound is not coming.

Please provide me some suggestions.

Thanks & Regards

Hi Dilip!

Please do not post any personal information like telephone numbers - the Posting Guidelines clearly state, that no email addresses should be posted and that also applies for telephone numbers and addresses.

About your question, how did you try to install the driver and what was the error? What audio hardware do you have? (Probably a soundcard on the motherboard, so do you know, which motherboard you are using?) Are loudspeakers or headphones connected to the audio output and is the volume of windows adjustable?

You can use a program like SiSoft Sandra Lite (free) to find out this and other information about your hardware (and more).
