CurtisV Posted April 5, 2008 Share Posted April 5, 2008 Hey everyone, I Have search around for a driver to get this working. I am on a gateway laptop and I believe the model num. is 7322GZ. It says on the audio tab of the sys pref. that it is AC97. I have searched the forums but with no luck. I just want to get my sound to work! Any help would be greatly appreciated!

CurtisV Posted April 5, 2008 Author Share Posted April 5, 2008 It says on the System Profiler when I click audio (built in). No built-in audio. Which is wierd. Wont sat anything on the PCI tab for vendor things, but when I click on usb, like in the directions it says. PCI Device ID: 0x24c4 PCI Vendor ID: 0x8086 Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/97673-ac97-audio-pcm-driver-cant-get-sound/#findComment-697729 Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have tons of inputs like Line In, CD, Stereo Mix, Mono Mix, Mic......but only one output... Line Out AC97 PCM. I have tried everything....i dont get why its recognized but no sound! i installed kalyway 10.5.1.....

CurtisV Posted April 7, 2008 Author Share Posted April 7, 2008 Yea I have tried a couple of different drivers but none of them seem to work. I really would like to get the sound working but I dont know if there is a solution because it seems no one can find one. I guess I will just keep trying random drivers and see what I get out of that. I really need the sound to work too. :\ Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/97673-ac97-audio-pcm-driver-cant-get-sound/#findComment-699789 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stephan2006 Posted August 6, 2008 Share Posted August 6, 2008 I Have Leopard 10.5.2 installed on my Balance CP4401. I had a heck of a time getting the sound to work. In the end i discovered that it was trying to pump the sound out the headphone jack on the front of the computer. the thing was i had unhooked that port from the mother board. once i put the cable back on and plugged in my speakers it worked like a charm. is it possible on your mother board you have a spot to plug in an extra audio port that is being used as the primary but is unhooked?
