If you manage to find an appropriate registry value, you can use the If command with the readRegString or readRegDWORD function to specify. I'll try your tips on that to see if it's the SSD being the problem. Anyway, I successfully found the needed registry value for a Creative Sound Blaster Recon3Di and for a Realtek ALC 1150, but as I don't have a device with an IDT sound card I can't do this for you. You think there is a difference between HD and SSD? I just now realized that I have an exact copy of this windows 10 on an HD in this computer where I think the sound doesn't work. That's reassuring, but I still don't know what the problem is. I tried the Linux Live and it worked like a charm. Yea, I installed that but it can still not find my sound card. None of those devices rely on the laptop's IDT audio Coateswrote: If you can't resolve the issue but want to continue using the SSD, you can still have audio by getting a usb audio jack, usb speakers/headphones, or bluetooth speakers/headphones. The installation and use of a SSD is way outside my area, so I don't even know if it causes additional audio problems or not. Putting Windows 10 on the older unsupported laptops is problematic but doable using compatibility mode, but the SSD might be a wild card. If you don't have Linux Live you can download it and install it onto a bootable flash drive. If it does not work in Linux then a good chance that there is a problem with the hardware. If the audio works in Linux then there is something in Windows that is preventing it from working. If you have a copy of Linux Live you can use it to test the audio. '"Īnd you installed the chipset driver, right? Because that is supposed to help the operating system identify some of the hardware on the motherboard. I'm trying to run the program in compatibility mode for Windows 7 I get an error message: 'The hardware that was found is not supported. Check the box "run this program in compatibility mode for ".

Here is the normal workaround - I don't know if having a solid state drive could affect this:ĭownload and install the Intel Chipset driver if this has not already been done.

I have used headphones as a mic in the past in an emergency, but it's not normal. I get "Speakers and dual headphones" detected for both the Playback and Recording devices.

What will probably happen with future feature updates is downloadable INI (not INF) files to customize the driver even further. The driver supports all known Sigmatel and IDT chipsets.
