I have a big problem My motherboard is an nVidia and I have installed the Realtek AC-97 drivers. All ok, but Windows says that it doesn't see any audio server and the Realtek doesn-t work.

I don-t know if I am in the right place, but it would be great if someone answer

Hi Josh8383,

to start with please update your BIOS by going to your motherboard manufacturer's site, download and install the latest available bios following the precautions listed there. Once the bios are updated you may try to install the Audio Codecs

The Realtec AC-97 drivers are available at this site:http://www.realtek.com.tw/Downloads/downloadsCheck.aspx?Langid=1&PNid=14&PFid=23&Level=4&Conn=3&DownTypeID=3

You may download the latest you can find for your model, install them, see if they work.

If they don't, please run them in Compatibility Mode as directed on this link:
