So my wife's laptop finally died on her, and we can't really afford to buy a new one at the moment.
So, I bought a couple of things (keyboard, mouse) for my old computer, and hooked it up for her.
Problem is, I cannibalized the sound card and put it in my current computer.
No problem, I can just use the onboard audio.
Unfortunately, I cannot get it to work for the life of me. I have installed the necessary drivers, enabled (I think I did it right) the option in the BIOS, and everything else. Windows seems to think I have a working sound driver, as I find no conflicts...hell there's even a volume button on my taskbar. Everything points to it working. But, there's no sound.
The motherboard is a MSI KT3 Ultra-ARU. It uses the Realtek AC '97 onboard sound.
Can anyone find the manual online? I want to ensure that I have my BIOS settings correct.
I went to MSI's site, but I get weird mysql errors when I try to download the manual.
Thanks guys.

also, do the drivers have separate profiles for 2-Ch, 5-Ch, etc? sometimes where the drivers are sending the sound isn't always where you usually plug in the cable.

I have it set to "headphones" right now as that is what my wife wants to use.
