In Sounds and Audio devices in the Control Panel I have SoundMAX
Digital Audio as the only device. There is a SPDIF jack on the back

microphone and speaker jacks all on the motherboard. I want to use
normal computer speakers at the moment. It seems as though the
driver doesn't recognise or is not installed for this. I have the
SoundMax control panel available in my system tray and don't see
anything there to enable other jacks or choose a non-digital output
or input.

I am running XP Home Version 2002 with SP2. No other sound cards are
installed. I went here and found some drivers:

I tried a couple but I still don't see any other audio device.

Any help would be apprciated.

Do you mean K8V-X ?

&model
menu=1

This is the driver I'd be interested in. The smwdmVI3.inf file
indicates it is a package intended for some VIA Southbridges, with
AD198x CODEC.

Does your control panel look like this ? This is an animated GIF, and
should show several of the panels available.

Yes, I meant K8V-X. That is the driver that I installed and yes my
control panel looks like the gif you sent except I do not have
'General' or 'Microphone' tabs. I only have 'Listening Environment' and
'MIDI Music Synthesiser'. Does this mean that my driver is not
installed properly?

I looked in my Bios and didn't see anything that I could enable as audio
stuff went. I noticed that my Midi and Game ports were disabled. As I
don't see them on the back of my PC I don't expect that to matter.

Any ideas as to why I don't see all for tabs?

Thanks for your reply.
