Recently, our sound card AC97 attached to a 4in1 driver motherboard stopped producing sound. After unsuccesfully trying to find its driver to download, we went out and bought a new cheap philips rhthmic edge PSC702 sound card. We have disabled theold sound card in BIOS, rearranged our sound card so its away from other cards, reinstalled the philip's sound card, keyboard, and mouse, but everytime you use the keyboard, mouse, pen, or the computer is processing their activity is heard in a loudand disturbing manner. I believe it to be a programable issue something in BIOS. Also, when we download it states time clock has expired and no cords are crossing or near power supply. We have an intel 733MHZ, 10.2 Seagate, 256MB

What o/s are you using 95, 98, me or 2000? Did you go to the main board web site to see what type sound cards it takes? Some main boards or o/s will only take a certin card. If you have me or 2000 go to microsofts web site to see what kind of hard ware it will take. Did you trouble shoot the on board card befor buying the new one?

Are you using a Asus motherboard? Had similar
situation with a client's MB. Read the
readme.txt file on the CD. In some of the
older Asus motherboard's you are not supposed
to load all of the drivers. I would remove the new sound card, and its drivers, and try the AC97 again. You may need to determine which drivers were used with each sound card and remove all so you can do a fresh install. As in the previous reply, it would be good to know which OS you are using.
