Hallo Experten,
ich besitze das o.a. Mainboard von Shuttle. Leider finde ich keinen passenden Treiber für den Soundchip unter WinXP Pro. Der WinNt4 Treiber von 1999 funktioniert nicht (für 82C930 -933).
Bin für jeden Tipp dankbar.

Hallo Peter !
Opti hat die Produktion und Support von Soudchips meines Wissens um 1997 eingestellt. Ich hatte ähnliche Probleme mit einer Soundkarte unter Win98. Der jüngste Treiber den ich besitze ist von 1996.
Laut Hilfetext soll der Chip Soundblaster-Pro kompatibel sein.
Es gibt nur eine Hilfe zu NT4. Vielleicht gibt es einen von XP mitgelieferten kopatiblen Treiber. (der Text ist hoffentlich nicht zu Lang ?!):

It’s your responsibility to install the NT IDE-CD ROM driver.
To install an IDE CD-ROM drive that is connected to 82c93x:
- Make sure there is no secondary IDE port that is enabled on
your system motherboard or another add-on card. - Choose „Enable IDE CD-ROM Interface“ check box. This instructs the
kernel mode driver sndinit.sys to enable the 82c93x on board
secondary IDE port 170h and IRQ15 upon NT boot time. - To install the Windows NT IDE CD-ROM driver (ATAPI.SYS), please refer
to the Windows NT System Guide.

For 82c931: Midi mixer line controls FM Synthesizer
Wavetable/MPU-401 line controls MPU-401 volume.
Also Treiber für eine Soundblaster-Pro auswählen und
die empfohlenen Einstellungen testen.
Hat bei mir allerdings auch nicht gefruchtet. Ich habe mir dann eine preiswerte PCI-Soundkarte von Terratec zugelegt (rund 25 Euro). Prüfe ggf. ob sich die onBoard-Karte im BIOS abschalten lässt !
Alternative Treibersuche (Boardhersteller) hier:

ps: Habe noch eine Kopie der Treiberdisk vorliegen.

Hallo Rainer,
vielen Dank. Deine Antwort ist auch mein Wissensstand gewesen. Ich warte jetzt auf eine Antwort vom Shuttle-Support. Mein Verdacht: Light-PC nur für Win9x (unter NT funktionierte der SC auch schon nicht). Ich werde wohl eine Soundkarte einbauen.
