#ASUS REALTEK AUDIO NO SOUND UPGRADE#
This is my first ASUS laptop, and even though I love V1s, I am really shocked by ASUS support, who not only did not spot and acknowledged this issue, they keep mislead people and loose money by accepting RMAs, swapping the MBs, while the issue is in their own conflicting Bioses! I am not going to upgrade the bios now until I know that this issue has been resolved.
#ASUS REALTEK AUDIO NO SOUND DRIVERS#
After rolling back to 208, clean Vista install, new realtek drivers and full vista updates insalled - the speakers started to work back again! I am now able to use the headphones back and force again. I used Asus flash utility in Bios to flash. I FINALLY MANAGED TO SOLVE THIS PROBLEM ENTIRELY BY ROLLING THE BIOS BACK FROM 301 to 208 version! I must say flashing down to 300 did not help. This never worked for me - so it clearly looked as a some sort of firmware issue (with internal i/O logic or something like this). I must say some people found a temporary solution by adjusting up and down the sound level, which unblocked the speakers until the next reboot, when they would be muted again. In fact, people RMA'ed their units with this problem and had the MBs replaced by Asus, only to find the same problem DEVELOP AGAIN IN 2-3 months! Needless to say I did not want to send my unit out to RMA for nothing. Realtek Audio Manager still showed headphones connected to the system even when they were not! so that speakers continued to be muted, even though the sound worked through the headphones or external speakers.ĪSUS support told me (and to all people with similar problem) that the issue is with the faulty motherboards. I tried everything possible - reinstalling all drivers (proper uninstall with PC clean of the old driver), format and clean install of Vista, recovery CD, everything, but nothing helped. I would like to say that I have Vista Business 64x, 4GB of RAM, BIOS 301, latest updated audio drivers, but according to the forum posts this issue is OS independent (someone even tried installing Linux and still the problem was not resolved). I then found out that this is a well-known problem with some Asus laptops, and even though rare, is well documented for G1s and G2s (and now V1s) mainly in Asus support forums. In fact, Vista continued to think that the jack is pluged in, and as a result the speakers were muted! At the same time, I knew the speakers were alive and working as they played the bios sound at start up!!! This is the most bizare thing about this problem. One day (3 month after original purchase) just out of the blue I disconnected the headphones from the headphones socket and found that this has not been detected by the system. I just wanted to share my experience of a problem with my V1S-B1 laptop and how I solved it by flashing BIOS back from 301 to 208.
