I have just installed WXP 64-Bit Edition and everything works but sound. Is the audio drivers for WXP 64-Bit Edition available somewhere? My mobo is K8T Master2.
Please help.

Thanks for your response. I noticed drivers at MSI's web site but they are for "Win98/ME/2000/XP" and WXP 64 is not in it. Do they work with WXP 64?

At PlanetAMD64 I noticed "VIA Audio Driver" being said to be the latest one among those listed. I downloaded and attempted to install but it did not install. There is a comment by bas saying it is much better than Realteck driver. I wonder why I could not install it.

Next I tried Realteck driver which is listed along with the above and it installed OK. But I am still interested in "VIA Audio Driver". Is this driver for AMD64/WXp-32bit but not for AMD64/WXP-64bit? I would like to know why I could not install it.

Hi Jocko,

The Realtek drivers don't work correctly with Skype and crash a lot....
The VIA drivers are much better, but a bit harder to install :lol_anim:

I just checked what I am using, is in a via file, the hyperion 4 in 1, its called rtlaudio, it seems to work, sounds good, no crashes, solid.

I was thinking of buying a couple more KT8s, but you say new board and chips on way, so might wait and see, any opinion?

cheers
