c0despanker Posted August 28, 2005 Share Posted August 28, 2005 Help anyone. I have read all over about people only getting the left channel to work for SoundMax chips, even if through the mic jack. I was just after a HOWTO like on the wiki on which kext to load. I have an Intel 865GLC mobo with SoundMax Chipset (Vendor ID: 8086, Device ID: 24D5) Even if I can only get mono sound, that's better then no sound at all!

joelogic Posted August 29, 2005 Share Posted August 29, 2005 Also, go into AUDIOMIDI in the utilities folder and set your output to 4 channel 16 and set the active speaker configuration to 3 and 4. That has worked for a lot of people, myself included. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
medafor Posted August 30, 2005 Share Posted August 30, 2005 Help anyone. I have read all over about people only getting the left channel to work for SoundMax chips, even if through the mic jack.

I have an Intel 865GLC mobo with SoundMax Chipset (Vendor ID: 8086, Device ID: 24D5) Even if I can only get mono sound, that's better then no sound at all! <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I FOUND THE PROBLEM!!! you cant boot up in safe mode! when i boot up in safe mode -x to bypass the ati driver conflict, my sound driver doesnt appear at all. i finally deleted all my ati.kext in the extensions folder with MACDRIVE via windows. i tried deleting them in osx but it still wouldnt let me boot up without safe mode. MAC DRIVE has a full functional 6 day trial. go to my computer in windows after installing macdrive. open your mac drive with osx install on it. browse to "/System/Library" then right click on the Library folder and click search. type "ati" in search field. delete everything that comes up.if you have nvidia card do the same but delete all nvidia files. now you wont have to boot with the -x flag and your sound card will be available in system prefs now. just to prove safe mode was the problem. if i -x at the startup and log in safe mode my sound card disappears again.

Thanks for looking Sounds like you need a legacy kernel. Not really the right place to ask for that though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
