@Bullsh0t1 That’s why I archived the same file on my own webpage right below it. Notice it says, “If that doesn’t work, here’s another link I archived myself:” It’s the identical file. And the Vista driver works for Windows 7 as well.

The first link in the description is broken for me :<

@Kylork thanks for you reply. I’m just happy you verified its a soundmax. Now I’m trying to find the lastest version of the driver. When I try to install, it give me an error. The audio driver files do not support your computer hardware . My current drivers date is 1-8-2007 Driver version 6.10.2.6100. FYI I’m running vista ultimate 64 ( I know I know)

@johnnyxsi BTW, just to clarify my first point, uninstall the Realtek driver and make sure the SoundMAX driver is installed.

@johnnyxsi You motherboard only uses the SoundMAX driver. Aside from that your problem is common. I recommend that you test your audio through the standard speaker output. From here I’m not experienced with your specific problem so I’m going to quote something I read on a forum, “Connect
the S/PDIF Cable that came with the Video Card one end to Video Card the other end to S/PDIF OUT on your motherboard. In your sound control settings enable your Video Card as primary device.”

not sure if you can help me, I have a P5NSLI motherboard and a Geforce 260 card. I installed the SPDIF cable from the motherboard to the card and I can’t get the card to work for nothing. I followed the nvidia instructions online (last 2 pins are spdif/ground) and still can’t get sounds. I keep seeing realtek and setting an HDMI option but I can’t get the realtek drivers to work. Only thing that is installing is Soundmax which seems to have limited options, HELP !

@SRMTHFGLover1 First you must check if you sound card really is Sound MAX. If it is, then download the proper driver which I have provided. If it’s not, then first read through the other comments along with the relies I’ve given. I don’t mind helping, I just didn’t understand your question. It looks like you got cut off mid sentence.

@ShadowthePast It’s easy to get confused with the options, even if you do get stereo mix enabled. What software are you using to record stereo mix? A good simple tool to use to test if stereo mix works is “Sound Recorder”. It’s part of all versions of Windows under Start> All Programs> Accessories> Entertainment> Sound Recorder. Select Edit> Audio Properties. Select your sound card for your playback device as well as your recording device. Then fiddle with the volumes if you need to.

I have Vista 32bit but the SoundMAX Control Panel doesn’t show on Notification Are

@622stephen First you must already be running a SoundMax soundcard. If you are, then refer to the links in the the description of this video. Also, research the make and model of your computer (or your motherboard) to find if it supports stereo mix.

How do you get that mixer for soundmax???? Please answer!!

@Kylork Oh and my soundcard is SoundMAX. It says “SoundMAX Digital Audio.” However I do have another device which is for my Logitech USB Headset, but I can’t update that driver or my headphones will flat out not work.

Also, SoundMAX under the recording option does have a Wave Out Mix option, which I heard is the same as Stereo Mix. However, clicking it does nothing.

@Kylork It’s a Dell, but I don’t know where to check the model (I’m clearly not a computer tech person ^^’)

And I’ll do that.

@ShadowthePast Which means you soundcard hardware isn’t SoundMAX.
Tell me the make (ex. HP, Dell, Toshiba…) and model (ex. a2561z, Dimension 2400, Satellite a3022-49) of your computer. I’ll tell you if there’s a simple solution.
Meanwhile, watch my video called “RealTek/SoundMAX Stereo Mix Record fix”, this has fixed 2 of the computers that i’ve owed.

When I try to install it (clicking the setup.exe file) it starts, but then says

“The HDA Audio bus driver is required and not found.”

Please reply? :/

If this works, YOU WILL BE MY ETERNAL HERO

Um i have a problem, When ever i talk into my mic i cant hear anything. But if i blow into it you can hear it. How do i fix this? i really need help

@55UAE you’re welcome

@gary2016g lol, I was 23 when I made this video.

u sound like my grandpa

@Wathyreckk Did you right-click and select “Show disabled devices” ? If so, can you tell me the specific model of your Lenovo computer? I’ll help you find the driver. But there’s a good chance it won’t support stereo mix. Due to DRM, manufactures have had to limit that option. Sometimes a registry edit fixes it, and sometimes it requires buying a new $80 sound card.

@Kylork ok…but when I go to the audio properties it says there my mixer device is SoundMax Audio HD, and the only recording input is microphone. I use lenovo, so do I just download its drivers for audio, or do I need to custom install a stereo mix?

@Wathyreckk That’s because you probably don’t have a SoundMAX sound card. If your computer is retail (such as Dell, HP, Gateway, Sony etc.), then google the specific model for sound drivers. If it was custom built, google the motherboard for drivers. Let me know if you need further assistance.

I downloaded it but it says it isn’t compatible?
I made sure I downloaded the right one.

thanks admin

some of them are not compatible where can i get drivers for all from
