well after looking around i dont think this thing is gonna work

its a pci-e SupremeFX-X-Fi card with a AD2000b chipset.

 

it ships with some Asus mobos that dont have built in audio.

 

i have tried all kexts from the ad2000b and applehda, enablers, voodoohda and so on.... i think its more worth my time to buy a different one.

Hello, I'm getting the same problem that you're suffering. My sound card came along with my Asus Rampage II Extreme mobo. On Windows it uses SoundMAX drivers and Creative Control Panel (so is it from SoundMAX or Creative!!??), but I can't find anyway to use it on Mac OS. I tried to install the VoodooHDA 2.7.2 installer package, it showed like this in my System Preferences' Sound tab:

Line-out (Green Rear)

Headphones (Green Front)

SPDIF-out (Rear)

Digital-out (HDMI)

 

I got my front green (on the front-side of my case) output to work (headphones), and also my rear green (on the sound card), which means I can only have stereo sound output =( (both can't work at the same time, only one at a time, either front or rear output). Sadly I don't have a receiver to test my SPDIF port, also my VGA is GTX280-ref version so it doesn't have HDMI output. One more thing that this version of VoodooHDA causes kernel panic to me when I try to boot-up my system, I can't get into the OS unless I use a BootCD.

 

So I guess this version of VoodooHDA just doesnt work (no 5.1, 7.1 multi-channels sound) and causes kernel panic. Anyone got better ideas?
