The audio driver is definitely not made by Conexant. Those folks make 56k modems and communications devices. I'll see if I can't dig up an audio driver. I should be able to.

Yeah it may be hardware-related. I've searched and searched and apparently the sound driver IS MADE by Conexant, which I've never heard of personally. I thought they only did modems and other junk parts. The driver I found is the same one over and over that you've already seen before so if it isn't working then it leads towards hardware-related issues instead, but I'm not sure.

Try using headphones? If it works, the speakers may be blown/ damaged.

Well it looks cool, in theory.. I actually haven't got it to boot.. lol

I click on the Ubuntu OS on the motherboard like startup screen... it goes to another box that says Windws XP in it..
If I click that it fails, and goes back.. and if I hit E I can edit another box in which I have no idea what Im doing..

haha.

Weird. Get another HDD, wipe it and reformat for a fresh install.
