HI GUYS,
I haven't given up yet! I am not able to find how to change the acpi hal to std pc hal both in bios or device manager? i am convinced that the only way for this audigy Rx to work will be to set a dedicated IRQ. Although seems like they are all already in use by something so not sure when i'm able to which one to delete or share with rather than the 4 on IRQ 16.
Also, since my last post I did check the on board sound like i said i would and it was disabled already, so for laughs i made it hd audio and moved my speaker input to the mother board audio out and everything worked fine so i know it can play. actually, did not sound too bad but i hate to conceed this problem. i have learned a lot dealing with this issue from you experts. i don't have too much time this week to experiment but if there is any further advise i am ready will and able to proceed. btw, if there is a sound board that is more friendly to use i am open to suggestion.
In the past the sound blasters have always been a no brainer, my i was just lucky then?
thank you, H-D
