Inbound sound problem

Aragor · 08-04-2006, 01:46 AM

I just bought a new computer which has a M2N32 SLI-Deluxe mobo. I use the onboard sound card and have already installed its drivers.

Now I can listen music just fine and I hear MSN's warning sounds, but when I try to use Teamspeak or "phone calls" via MSN messenger, I cant hear anyone, but those I speak with can hear me speaking in my mic.

Anyone has any clue about what I could do to solve that?

That sounds more like a connection problem rather then a driver or setting configuratio while not ruling out the last. On a dsl router here only the host pc can be used for chat rooms. Straight dsl doesn't allow audio without the NIK or modem card installed.

And what could I do?

How are you connecting to the internet? dialup, dsl, cable? If it is not the connection being a problem as in dsl or cable then the line-in isn't fully enabled or configured by the software. Another item when using onboard rather then a pci card is the Windows sound mixer. If the advanced setting is unchecked and disabled you wouldn't hear the incoming sound.

Ok so here's what was wrong : I had 2 sound cards installed on my computer for some reason, one of those I dont even have and I have no clue how it got installed there. After uninstalling but the correct soundcard and the WTF?!? one, I installed the drivers of my onboard soundcard and now everything works. Must have been a conflict between both soundcard drivers.

Thanks for the help anyway!

Two sound cards? That would definitely be both a software and hardware conflict as well. You would certainly see a driver conflict at times. Hopefully you stay with the better of the two there.
