Recommended Posts

Hello,

 

I recently installed OSX86 10.4.7 (JaS) and realised that almost everything worked except for the sound, i have been trying to figure out how to make sound work ever since.

If someone could please give me a simple solution with the correct steps to solve this problem, i would be very happy.

 

SoundCard: SoundMAX Digital Audio

Vendor ID 8086

Device ID 24D5

OS : OSx86 10.4.7 (JaS)

I have the same sound card and OS version and it worked right out of the box. Maybe your kexts are corrupt..

I also recently installed OSX86 10.4.7 (JaS) and patched it to 10.4.8 (JaS) SSE2 on a Compaq Presario R3000 Notebook, everything works except sound. . .Have poked around many forums and tried different drivers with no avail.

 

SoundCard: SoundMAX Digital Audio

Vendor ID 1002

Device ID 4341

OS : OSx86 10.4.7 (JaS) patched to 10.4.8

 

any help would also be greatly appreciated!

ptesone, 1002 is the vendor ID of Ati. I say check it again.

When I'm booted in XP and goto Device Manager under Sound I have listed:

SoundMAX Integrated Digital Audio

 

the properties of that are:

VEN_1002 DEV_4341

 

so since it's actually an ATI chipset does this mean I have to start going thru AC'97 compatible threads?

Hey there, I can confirm this is correct. I have an HP Pavilion zx5280. It has an ATI chipset (RS300). The integrated audio is indeed SoundMAX, VEN_1002 & DEV_4341.

 

So, how do we get this working? :( Anyone?

Yes, it is ATI sound. There is a topic about it with successful working driver

http://forum.insanelymac.com/index.php?sho...mp;#entry485714

why you don't find it?

 

But one problem still exits as I say at the end of the thread.

Thanks Slice! Well, believe me, if I could find it using the search functionality on the board, I would not have posted the question. :)

 

I will go try out the driver in your linked post now.

 

EDIT: Hey Slice - Copied the kext to /System/Library/Extensions, set appropriate permissions, and rebooted. Sound is working now. THANKS! :D
