I'm having trouble with the AC97 audio driver on my Windows machine. I tried updating my audio drivers, and I think I accidentally messed something up. Now, I can't get any sound from my speakers. I checked the device manager, and it shows that the sound device is not working properly. I tried reinstalling the driver, but I still keep getting errors.
I'm using a pretty old setup, and I'm not sure if the motherboard manufacturer still provides support for AC97. Does anyone have a reliable source for downloading compatible drivers, or any troubleshooting tips to get things back in working order? Any advice on whether there are generic drivers or updates that might help with this?
Thanks for any help you can provide!
