DRIVER NEEDED: Elitegroup Computer Systems VT8367-8235 (Windows XP Home)

[Souldan]

Hi guys, just upgraded my old warhorse of a computer with XP from 2000 and now getting no sound.

It must be a driver issue as in device manager it comes up with unknown Multimedia Audio Driver.

Same thing on the program from this site says it unknown

I think its the mainboard

Any ideas?

Support Information:
Device Type: BIOS / Motherboard
Manufacturer: Elitegroup Computer Systems
Model: VT8367-8235
Interface: Other
Operating System: Windows XP Home
Age of Device: < 2 years old
FCCID:

Find it on DriverGuide | Find it with Google | Research manufacturer Elitegroup Computer Systems

VT8367-8235 is only a chipset. Please identify your sound chipset and the motherboard it's integrated in.

I ran id'ing program and this is what it came up with for the mainboard. Does that help?

Thanks

The software id programs says you have Realtek audio but it doesn't id the exact chipset. There are Realtek drivers posted in our Sound Card forum in the STICKY. Realtek drivers are also available on the Realtek website as well as from the motherboard manufacturer.
