Trouble installing Win95 sound & sound drivers.

I think you should install the audio application from the CD too to can use the onboard sound.

Go to the add/remove applet in the control panel. Click the Windows setup tab and the multimedia option after that. You can use the details view once the Multimedia option is highlighted. Add Sound recorder. I would add all multimedia options while I was there. Assuming you have installed the proper driver for the soundcard and it shows up in the device manager, this should work for you. Adds a speaker icon in the system tray in which you can control volume, mic controls etc.....

We did it guys. You put me on the right track. I'm sure this little problem is going to help me with other installs. Yes, I did need the "sound record", however, just checking it in the "add/remove" app, didn't do it completely. I had to reinstall Win95 to make it install. It was great to hear those startup chimes when I rebooted. You can be sure I'll check every item in the Multimedia setup from now on. Thanks guys.

At the moment, I'm working an an M571 mobo, but it probably doesn't matter. I have trouble installing sound. This mobo has onboard video and sound. I had no problem installing the video, but no sound. Doesn't seem to matter if I run the install from the CD, or ask Windows to find it. Basically, I can't find the Volume Control to make it work. ????
