Well, sort of. I installed the RA Link drivers that came with my motherboard, ran them, ran the program that it installed with them, and it played the sound. I go to play a song in WMP just to double check, and get nothing. So I go into the sound options in WMP. It doesn't detect I've got speakers plugged in. I went and looked, it detects my Realtek Drivers. Just doesn't detect the speakers and that it should put sound out through said speakers.

I don't know how else I could put it. Halp plz?

Could be directx, doubtful, more probably it's your soundcard/drivers. I had this problem with my SB Audigy LE for a while before installing the drivers. Good luck.

Onboard sound, and it worked on my old HDD (granted, last install was roughly a year ago, but they worked fine then).
