I just helpped my m8 fit a new motherboard and CPU into a new tower.
Know we did a reinstall of XP and updated everything but the onboard AC'97 audio would not let us enable mic boost for when we use voice convo's.

We installed a Trust sound expert pci soundcard and installed the dreiver for that wich originally had a seperate mixer to the windows one which would let us enable mic boost. however with the new stuff we have we only get the windows mixer which still has no advanced options and no mic boost.

Have i missed something out or am i wasting my time.

everything is upto date with latest drivers and what not but no joy.

the PCI sound card is running on c-media's latest drivers.

hope you guys can help out as my friend is starting to stress out (the big girl)

thanx
