    MSI 8500GT with HDMI ports, Audio is not working?

    I figured it out. It wasn't anything hardware related. Rather it was the RealTek audio driver, and I got that from another forum. Works like a charm now. Thanks.

    MSI 8500GT with HDMI ports, Audio is not working?

    Shoot. I hope it's not the mobo. See here's the thing... when I plugged the onboard audio into my speaker it works great. But I know it must have something to do with the SPDIF. The video portion of the HDMI works great... just the sound! Argh! So frustrating! I'm looking for...

    MSI 8500GT with HDMI ports, Audio is not working?

    Absolutely, I'm positive that I have it on the right headers on the mobo. I bought the Razer AC-1 Barracuda Sound Card today off woot.com Hopefully that will solve the problem? I don't have a sound card with SPDIF, so that's why I purchased the Razer AC-1 Barracuda Sound Card.

    Razer AC-1 Barracuda Sound Card - $55 shipped...

    Would this be a good solution to go with my HTPC? I have a MSI 8500GT card and it has a HDMI port. For some reason I can't get the audio to work with the HDMI cables. Would this be a solution to that?

    I'm currently using an Antec 430 case along with an Asus P5E-VM HDMI motherboard. I have a MSI 8500GT video card that has both DVI and HDMI. I bought the HDMI cable and no sound works at all. So, I decided to buy the Asus SPDIF Module out so that I can plug it into the headers on the...

    MSI 8500GT with HDMI ports, Audio is not working?

    Yesterday, I received the SPDIF out module from Asus. I plugged int the headers into the motherboard and from the MSI 8500GT video card there was a SPDIF "in" plug that I plugged into the SPDIF module. The end of the plug is yellow. I still can't get it to work! Any ideas?

    Vista PC Blue Screening

    It worked. What is was is that once I plugged in the hard drive it was showing as a drive failed which I know for a fact that it hasn't failed. I went into Device manager and rescan, it found the hard drive, then went into the Computer Disk Management and then reactivated disk and worked...

    MSI 8500GT with HDMI ports, Audio is not working?

    I have a MSI 8500GT card with a DVI and HDMI port. It supports 1080P and the picture on my TV looks fantastic. Only problem is that the audio doesn't work with the HDMI cable? The card has a SPDIF "In" connector and when I plug it into the SPDIF "out" connector on the mobo it still does not...

    Vista PC Blue Screening

    Hot plugging? So basically let Vista load, then take the power plug (for SATA) and the data cable and plug them right in? That's interesting, I've never heard that you could do that...

    Cannot get XP system to get access to Vista's shared files and vice versa

    I recently built a basic HTPC vista machine, and for some reason, when I try to share the folders on Vista, the XP machine cannot get access to it. On the XP machine when I go to "network neighborhood" it sees the Vista machine. The same for Vista when I do the same thing, it can see the XP...

    Looking to build a HTPC, what do you think of this setup?

    Thanks for the suggestion. I have a TV that supports up to 3 HDMI sources. I'd like to utilize the HDMI onboard ports if possible. If not, then I'll go this route if I don't really notice a difference. My TV has one VGA port. No DVI. That being said, and from reviews that the onboard...

    Looking to build a HTPC, what do you think of this setup?

    I'm thinking of picking up this motherboard for a HTPC setup. What do you guys think of this setup? I'm not looking to spend too much money. I figure that would be the bare minimum since it already comes with onboard video, onboard sound, and I have a spare 500GB hard drive. I will be...
