Fix computer sound issues

Hello guys, I am very glad to share some sound issue fixes with you in this article. Hope they can be of some help when no sound from your computer one day. ;)
1. Integrated sound is too fast-forward when playing any audio files.
If the sound card has sound, the issue could lay on setting and sound driver.
If the computer is over clocking, first reduce the frequency and then turn off the sound card acceleration. If this does not work, look for the motherboard and audio patches and new multimedia audio controller driver.
2. Four-channel can not work properly
Some integrated sound card can make sound normally but still can not use the four-channel mode, this could be due to setting problems.
Note:
Many sound cards simulate the 4-channel by simply copying the voice of the front speakers to the rear speakers through software and this enables us to listen to CD or MP3 player with four channels but what we hear is not real four channels when playing 3D games or DVDs.
3. The sound is not continuous when we run chatting software.
As a matter of fact, this issue has nothing to do with the sound card itself. Because of the network traffic restrictions, the network bandwidth can not smoothly pass the sound signal. Therefore, we had better not to operate downloading a large flow programs when chatting online. If it is permitted, change the network access and increase bandwidth.
4. BIOS settings
Users that are not familiar with the BIOS could misuse sound card.
To solve BIOS setting issue, Just enter the BIOS, select the I/O Device configuration → Onboard AC97 Audio Controller, choose ENANLE or AUTO (I have tried the process in my ASUS motherboard).
5. Windows prompts that no audio driver is found after a few times of sound card reinstallation.
Such failures are generally caused by unfinished driver installation or the fact that CONFIG.SYS, AUTOEXEC.BAT or DOSSTART.BAT files have ran sound card drivers.
To solve the problem, we can just delete the sound driver files running inside, of course we can also delete the three files mentioned above. If there isn’t anything in the above three files, we have to modify the registration form by clicking the "Start" menu - "Run" and enter "regedit" Enter in the dialog box, then the registration form related to sound card will be deleted.
6. The sound card make no sound after installing the network card and other devices.
This problem are generally caused by driver compatibility issues and interrupt conflicts.
As for the driver compatibility, we can fix it easily by simply updating the driver. While for the interrupt conflicts, it would be a little more troublesome. First, go to Control Panel → System → Device Manager, check each IRQ, and manually set the IRQ to eliminate the conflict. If the Device Manager can not eliminate the conflict, the best way is to return to the BIOS, turn off unneeded equipment to empty out the excess IRQ interrupt.

By the way, feel free to comment if you have more ideas of fixing computer sound issues! Thanks for reading! 
