Ok A while back I asked about where to get Realtek AC'97 drivers. Now I have a problem installing them my computer automatically recognizes the hardware and then starts installing the drivers and all of a sudden it asks for alcxwdm.sys and I don't know what to do and I can't find that file. And somethimes when I try to install the driver, it automatically shuts my computer down and then when I turn the computer on the driver isn't installed. :angry: :angry: :frusty: :frusty:
Look here:
http://www.soundcard-drivers.com/drivers/59/59209.htm
The alcxwdm.sys file is the 5th one down, it's in that zip file. Maybe this will help? :unsure:
it doesn't have ALSNDMGR.CPL file :(:(
I got it to find those files but it now says that it cant be installed and there is [Code 10] error. :frusty: :frusty: :frusty: :frusty: :frusty: :frusty: :frusty: :frusty: :frusty:
What sound card/motherboard is it?
Sound Card: Realtek AC'97
Motherboard: Intel Blue Mountain 2 D845PEBT2
nope still not helping :frusty:Quote:

What doesn't make sense is the fact that you say the audio is Realtek AC'97 and the motherboard has "Integrated Audio: ADI Cadenza".Quote:

Realtek AC'97 isn't a sound card anyway, it's the integrated audio.Quote:
