7654321 Posted October 11, 2005 Share Posted October 11, 2005 I installed OS X X86 with the Generic Install DVD. I have a Realtek AC97 audio card and it's not detected at all. I go to System Preferences then sound, it says there are no devices found for both input and output. What now?

7654321 Posted October 12, 2005 Author Share Posted October 12, 2005 Well, I tried to do it and it says there's no directory in my DVD of appleac97. Tried to find it myself, it just says "Extensions.kext." What now? BTW, I have the Generic Install DVD.
