Audio problems

by Dave Lorking - 6/5/06 6:49 PM

I just finished building a system with an Ultra Tower case, an Intel D975XBX mobo, a Pentium D processor, and an MSI Radeon 1300 video card. Everything works fine, except for the audio. I cannot get any sound our of the back panel ports. Aditionally, the Front Panel audio cables that came with the case are seven cables independently labeled Mic Power, Mic In, Ear R, Ear R, Ear L, Ear L, and GND. Because they are inidvidual cables, I don't know how they would map onto the motherboard's audio headers, which are label differently: (Pin 1) Port1L, (2) GND, (3)Port1R, (4)Presence#, (5) Port2R, (6) Sense1_Ret, (7) Sense_send, (8) Key (no pin), (9) Port2L and (10) Sense2_ret.

No help from either Ultra or Intel, can someone help?

Thank you.

Pin 1 = Port1L = Mic In/Mic2

Pin 2 = Ground = Ground/AGnd

Pin 3 = Port1R = MicPower/Mic1

Pin 4 = Presence# = Not Used

Pin 5 = Port2R = Right Output/Speaker

Pin 6 = Sense1_Ret = Right Output/Speaker/jumper ---------------------------together w/pin5

Pin 7 = Sense_Send = Not Used

No Pin 8

Audio microphone volume/gain issues

by shane13519 - 7/27/06 6:28 AM In reply to: Audio problems by Dave Lorking

Does your microphone work OK? Typically I have used a boom mic placed on the desktop. With this mobo I had to hold the boom mic next to my lips to get any pick up at all. Tried switching to headset and attached microphone and still can only just get faint pickup. Same problem with front panel and rear panel connectors. Adjusted everything than I can see and can make it no better.
Machines is multi boot with xp pro and xp pro x64. Same problems on both. Wonder if it is some issue with the Intel supplied audio software but there is no way to uninstall that I can find so short of re-installing whoile OS that can't be done - close to doing that as I am a Skype user and this machine cannot be used for that the way it is
Any ideas?
