Hi all,
Recently i installed a brand new windows 7 os on my pc only to find that my audio dousnt work. Now, i do got a little knowledge regarding computers but this problem extended me. When i took a look at my device management section there is a yellow icon apearing next to: High definition audio controll, or something like that. Looking at properties gave me a inside of the problem: "This device cannot find enough free resources that it can use. (Code 12)". After researching this i came across of some possible solutions, like: Uninstall other system devices, go check your bios settings, etc. i tried nearly everything. uninstalling other system devices ended me up with a blue screen of death upon reboot of my system. Bios settings are nothing wrong with and pretty up to date. Uninstalling the current audio driver and installing a new up to date one didnt work either.
After a midday of research i came across a cause of the problem: two devices are using te same resource wich results in conflicting eachother. i downloaded the S.I.W software, digging further into the memory recource item and found that my onboard audio uses the following resource:
High definition audio controller, memory range: 0xF9EF8000 - 0xF9GEFBFFF
System speaker I/O range: 0x0061 - 0x0061
High definition audio controller, IRQ: 0x0000000B (11) Shared.
now i honestly have'nt got a clue of what this means but maybe you guys can manage to make something out of it. So i've found the resource and know that the first device is using it, çant find the second one (Perhaps all this info hasn't got any relativity but atleast i mentioned it).
