I have been on many fourms , and i have tryed myself to disable my relteck soundcard under bios but the truth is i havent got a clue on how to disable it and im worried if i do , my 5.1 sondcard still wont work......

I am running windows x-p and , i have a 5.1 trust external soundcard..... with 5.1 philips sound surround speakers , a few days ago they where working fine , i havent changed any settings and the speakers are 100% not broken and the soundcard is not on mute either .

I think its because i need to disable the old sound in bios ... i have had this problem before but it wasnt permnant like this the sound came bk after a few hours , can someone please help many thanks.

For the reocrd , i have tryed myself for the last 6 days to try and get this working its only now i have plucked up the corage to ask for pro help.

In the bios, look for something labelled 'onboard devices' or 'integrated peripherals'. Under one of those headings should be onboard sound, or realtek audio or something of the sort. What motherboard do you have?
